Answer:


\large\boxed{\sqrt[3]{\left((15)/(4)\right)^2}}

Explanation:


a^(n)/(m)=\sqrt[m]{a^n}\\---------------------\\\\\left(5*(3)/(4)\right)^(2)/(3)=\left((5*3)/(4)\right)^(2)/(3)=\left((15)/(4)\right)^(2)/(3)=\sqrt[3]{\left((15)/(4)\right)^2}

Answer:


\large\boxed{C.\ \sqrt5}

Explanation:


\left(5^(3)/(4)\right)^(2)/(3)\\\\\text{Use}\ (a^n)^m=a^(nm)\\\\5^{(3)/(4)\cdot(2)/(3)}=5^{(1)/(2)\cdot(1)/(1)}=5^(1)/(2)=\sqrt[2]5=\sqrt5
