help

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

i need to rewrite in simplest radical form

OpenStudy (supersmart1001):

ok what is it

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

|dw:1466431916601:dw|

OpenStudy (supersmart1001):

is there a square root

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

no

OpenStudy (supersmart1001):

oh ok hold on i need to find my special calculator that can solve this

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

ok thx

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

but i need to find out how to do it step-by-step

OpenStudy (phi):

I would "flip" the fraction and make the exponent the opposite sign i.e positive as at the first step.

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

oh

OpenStudy (phi):

I would simplify 3/6 I assume you can do that ?

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

lol

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

2

OpenStudy (phi):

3/6 is 1/2

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

lol

OpenStudy (phi):

if you get an exponent with 1/n where n is an integer you can rewrite as a radical (square root sign), of "degree" n for n=2 , it is the usual "square root"

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

oh ok

OpenStudy (supercalifragalisticexspeaalli):

so what would be the simplest radical form
