Answer:

15

Explanation:

Given the expression:

\displaystyle{\left(15^{(1)/(5)}\right)^5}

We can apply the law of exponent of:


\displaystyle{\left(a^m\right)^n = a^(mn)}

Therefore, we will have:


\displaystyle{\left(15^{(1)/(5)}\right)^5 = 15^{(5)/(5)}}\\\\\displaystyle{\left(15^{(1)/(5)}\right)^5 = 15^(1)}\\\\\displaystyle{\left(15^{(1)/(5)}\right)^5 = 15}

Hence, the value of expression is 15.
