Answer: If 36/7 is one of the options, choose that one.

If the question involves an exponent, you should use the "caret" which is ^ found above the 6 on a keyboard. [Shift + 6]. That helps avoid confusion.

Step-by-step explanation: 7 is equal to 35/5 because 7×5=35

Add 1/5 and you end up with 36/5. A Common rational number.

7^(1/5) = the 5th root of 7. A very small irrational number!
