Question

How can I express this as a single power with positive exponents?

Answer 1

5^1

Explanation:

`√(5) =5^{(1)/(2) }` (law of indices - fractional powers)

after converting all the numbers to this form:

`\frac{5^{{(2)/(3) } } * 5^{(1)/(2) } }{5^{(1)/(6) } } \\`

combine using law of indices:

5^(2/3+1/2-1/6) = 5^1
