6 over the 5th root of 16
\[\frac{ 6 }{ \sqrt[5]{16} }\]
i had the question typed all wrong
Similar to the last question you need to rationalize that denominator! The difference being that in order to rationalize it you will need to multiply a few more times. So this time we will multiply the fifth root of 16 4 times.
i simplified the 16 to \[2^{4}\]
\[\frac{ 6 }{ \sqrt[5]{16} } * \frac{ \sqrt[5]{16} }{ \sqrt[5]{16} }* \frac{ \sqrt[5]{16} }{ \sqrt[5]{16} }* \frac{ \sqrt[5]{16} }{ \sqrt[5]{16} }* \frac{ \sqrt[5]{16} }{ \sqrt[5]{16} }\]
\[\frac{ 6 * \sqrt[5]{65536} }{ 16 }\]
You can simplify 16 to 2^4 but that's not quite simplest form, we usually try to get rid of exponents because they muddy things :)
So from here how would you simplify further?
