Question 67131
Using the laws of exponents again, explain why it makes sense to use
fractional exponents to represent the roots of a value.
Such as 
9^(1/2) = 3

Using fractional exponents it is easier to figure out 
problems like [sqrt3 *(cube root 3)] 
Rewriting with fractionals you get;
3^(1/2)*3^(1/3)= 3^(5/6)
That was easy but how would you handle original statement of 
the problem?
Fractional exponents simplify multiplying, dividing, raising
to powers and finding roots because the laws of exponents apply.
