Explanation:

The given statement is :


\sqrt[4]{2} =2^{(1)/(4)}

We need to select the correct simplification for this.

We know that,
\sqrt[a]{x} =x^{(1)/(a)}

So,


\sqrt[4]{2} =(2)^{(1)/(4)}

Also,
(x^a)^b=x^(a* b)

So,


(2^{(1)/(4)})^4=2^{(1)/(4)}* 2^{(1)/(4)}* 2^{(1)/(4)}* 2^{(1)/(4)}\\\\=2^{(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)+(1)/(4)}\\\\=2^1\\\\=2

So, these are the steps. Hence, the correct option is (B).
