How to solve fractional exponent

Definition:

In simple words, Exponent means how many times a number is repeated in multiplication. A fraction having exponent form and following rules which is followed by the integers. A fractional exponents form is 1/n. taking the nth root for solving the fraction. Examples of fractional exponents 41/3, 52.5

Solving fractional exponents is nothing but an algebraic exponents, which has a fractional value in the exponenent term. The exponenets is nothing but the base terms expressed in power for example an , here base "a" expressed in power n .

Laws for fractional exponents:

Bx/y = y√Bx

Bx/n / By/n = B(x-y)/n

Bx/n By/n = B(x+y)/n

(Bx/n)y/n = B(xy)/n

How to solve fractional exponent

Example: Solve 92.5

Solution:

92.5 = 92 * 90.5

=92 * 91/2

=81*3

=243

The answer is 243
