Answer:

Explanation:

(a) To work out the value of 64 - 1/2, we first need to understand that -1/2 is the same as raising the number to the power of -1/2. So, 64 -1/2 can be written as 64^(-1/2)

The value of 64^(-1/2) is equal to 1/√(64) = 1/8

(b) To work out the value of 81 - 1/2, we can write it as 81^(-1/2)

The value of 81^(-1/2) is equal to 1/√(81) = 1/9

(c) To work out the value of 64 - 1/3, we can write it as 64^(-1/3)

The value of 64^(-1/3) is equal to 1/∛(64) = 1/4

(d) To work out the value of 125 - 1/3, we can write it as 125^(-1/3)

The value of 125^(-1/3) is equal to 1/∛(125) = 1/5

Note: √ represents square root and ∛ represents cube root
