?
\[\sqrt[6]{125}x^3y^9z^6\]
\(\Large\sqrt[6]{125}x^3y^9z^6\) Are the variables supposed to be outside the radical?
yea I'm guess you single pair it by 6 and the radical exponents
This is the problem? \(\Large\sqrt[6]{125x^3y^9z^6}\)

yes.
Ok. Look at the following: \(\Large\sqrt[n]{a^n} = a\) For example, \(\Large \sqrt[4]{x^4} = x\) (for non-zero x).
In your problem, \(125 = 5^3\) There aren't enough factors of 5 inside the radical to take a 6th root, so 125 remains. The same is true of \(x^3\)
\(\Large \sqrt[6]{z^6} = z\)
Now we need to deal with y. \(\Large y^9 = y^{6 + 3} = y^6 \cdot y^3\)

wouldn't make it \[\sqrt{z^6}\] ?
so the exponents subtract?
|dw:1414642161092:dw|
