Question 83822
Evaluate 8 raised to the 1 1/3 power.
First, change the exponent to an improper fraction so that it looks like:
{{{8^(4/3)}}}...and this is read as...the cube root of 8 to the fourth power.
Find 8 to the fourth power:{{{8^4 = 4096}}} (8*8*8*8 = 64*64 = 4096)
Now find the cube root of 4096...and this = 16 (4096 = 16*16*16) 
So, 8 raised to the 1 1/3 power = 16.
