Answer: 266

Step-by-step explanation: This is a ratio problem. If there are 14 chocolates with nuts out of every 32 chocolates, you can use this as a ratio and set it up as a proportion.

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:

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