To a fellow classmate :D

Each bullet point is a step for solving this problem :)

-Given

-5 root of 36 is the same as 36^1/5 (Simplifying).

-Simplifying some more. (ex. 1/x is the same as x^-1).

-Since the base is 6, you want to simplify 36 to 6^2.

-Rule of Exponents: Multiply the exponent 2 with the outer exponent -1/5


*Drum Roll* And the answer is -2/5!

I tried to make this easy to understand. I strayed away from other mathematical terms when explaining. Hope I helped!
