Answer 2

Here we go. 

I'm assuming that you are doing 32^2, and dividing by five. 
1. Raise 32 to the second power. To do that, you multiply 32 by itself, which is 1,024. 
2. Divide by five, which is 204.8


However, if you're trying to do 32 to the 3/5 power, that is a little more tricky. 
This is an example of "taking a root". It's basically just a re-writing of a root. For example, 16^1/2 is the same as the square root of 16. So, for your question, 32^3/5 is the same as 5sqrt32 raised to the 3rd. The answer is 8. 

Hope this helps!
