Given the following expression:

To expand the given exponential expression, we first convert 5.2 into an improper fraction.
We get,



Reconstructing the expression, we get:

When the exponent is a fraction, the numerator remains the exponent of the base while the denominator becomes the degree of the root.
We get,
![\text{ 5}^{(16)/(5)}\text{ = y }\rightarrow\text{ }\sqrt[5]{5^(16)}\text{ = y}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/s6w2zdv0119iuidvvesmj7wrjcrcx40szz.png)
