Answer:

D (bottom right answer)

Explanation:

The denominator of an exponent is the index of the root.

For example, x^1/2 means √2.

x^1/5 means the 5th root of x.

You have 3x^1/5.

3 is not in the root, so you need an answer that has a plain 3.

That eliminates the two answers on the top line.

Then you have x^1/5 which means the 5th root of x.

The correct answer must be 3 × 5th root of x

Answer: D
