Final answer:

To write the radical using a radical exponent, we can use the property that √a = a^(1/n), where n is the index of the radical.

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the radical using a radical exponent, we can use the property that √a = a^(1/n), where n is the index of the radical.

For example, if we have the square root of a number, the index is 2. If we have the cube root, the index is 3, and so on. Let's say we want to write the square root of 25 as a radical exponent. The index is 2, so the radical exponent is 25^(1/2). The cube root of 125 can be written as 125^(1/3), and so on.
