Answer: 1 and 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine 3 1/3 as if it’s in parenthesis as (3 + 1/3)

Subtract three from five.

You should get two.

Then you subtract the last 1/3 from that two.

There are three thirds in one digit.

Therefore, two thirds are left over, plus that last whole digit.

You are left with one and one third.

Simplify square root of 2 over cube root of 2.

Fed [463]

Answer:

2 to the power of one sixth

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you don't already know this, any type of root can be expressed as an exponent. Generally speaking:

$\sqrt[n]{x} = {x}^{ \frac{1}{n} }$

So you can rewrite the given fraction as

$\frac{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} } }{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{3} } }$

and then reduce as you normally would. That is, if the bases of the numerator and denominator are the same, then you can subtract the denominator's exponent from the numerator's exponent like so:

$\frac{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} } }{ {2}^{ \frac{1}{3} } } = {2}^{ \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3} }$

Since

$\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{6} - \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{6}$

the answer is

${2}^{ \frac{1}{6} } \: or \: \sqrt[6]{2}$
