how do i solve rational exponet (3^√16) /(5^√ 4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is just like saying 3^4/5^2 81/25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just solve the top then bottom then divide?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, that is pretty much. You wanna try and make it easy for yourself, so you look at it and try to figure out what you can do to simplify it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in my book the answer is written |dw:1315955169418:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm that is weird. I am sorry, but I cannot seem to figure out what they did...I will keep trying though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok ty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok maybe I am looking at this wrong because I keep ending up with my original answer. Is your question saying 3 raised the sqrt of 16 over 5 raised to the sqrt of 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its cubied root of 16 divided by the 5th root of 4|dw:1316007977760:dw|
