For this case we must find an expression equivalent to:


(256x^(16)) ^ {\frac {1} {4}

By definition of power properties we have to:


(a ^ n) ^ m = a ^ {n * m}

Then, rewriting the expression:


(256 ^ {\frac {1} {4}} * x ^ {\frac {16} {4}}) =

We have by definition:


\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}

So:


\sqrt [4] {256} * x ^ 4 =\\\sqrt [4] {4 ^ 4} * x ^ 4 =\\4x ^ 4
