Answer:
\bold{\sqrt[3]{x^2} }

Explanation:


\frac{x^{(5)/(6)}}{x^{(1)/(6)}}\\\\\\=x^{(5)/(6)-(1)/(6)}}}\\\\\\=x^{(4)/(6)}}}\\\\\\=x^{(2)/(3)}}}\\\\=\sqrt[3]{x^2}

Answer:

The simplest Radical =
\sqrt{x^(3) }

Explanation:

The two terms of the fraction are
x^{(5)/(6)}⇒numerator

and
x^{(1)/(6)}⇒denominator

Both of them are same variable x

So we can use the rule of the power:

If we divide to terms have the same base we subtract their powers


\frac{x^{(5)/(6) } }{x^{(1)/(6) } }=x^{(5)/(6)-(1)/(6)  }=x^{(4)/(6) } =x^{(2)/(3) }

If the power is in the shape of fraction so the numerator of the fraction represents the radical and the denominator represents the power inside the radical.


x^{(2)/(3) }=\sqrt{x^(3) }
