Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

nth root of a number 'a' is represented by the expression,

$\sqrt[n]{a}$

In this expression 'n' = Index of of the radical

$\sqrt[4]{16}$ is called the 4th root of 16.

In $\sqrt[4]{16}$, the index is 4 and the radicand is 16.

4th root of 16 can be represented by $\sqrt[4]{16}$

$\sqrt[4]{16}=(16)^{\frac{1}{4}}$

       $=(2^{4})^{\frac{1}{4}}$

       = 2
