interesting, lemme give u an example
what u meant was : (i assume)
2 #s, X and Y
[ (X^1/2) / (Y^1/2) ]^1/2
distribute, we have:
(X^1/2) ^ 1/2 / (Y ^ 1/2 ) ^1/2
simplify, we have
X^1/4 / Y^1/4
no square root can be on the bottom so we mutiply by Y^3/4 / Y ^ 3/4
we have:
(X^1/4 * Y^3/4 ) / Y which can be
{ [X (Y) ^3] ^ 1/4 }/ Y
