6/5 = 1 + 1/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about the 32 with the parenthisis

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[B^{p+q}=B^p~*~B^q\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[32^{6/5}=32^{1+1/5}=32^1~*~32^{1/5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

square root?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

32 is is a power of 2, and maybe 2^5

OpenStudy (amistre64):

5th root, not square root

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[32^1~*~32^{1/5}\] \[32~*~(2^5)^{1/5}\] \[32~*~2^{5/5}\] \[32~*~2=64\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):
