Question
Rationalize each denominator.$$\frac{3 x y^{2}}{\sqrt[5]{8 x y^{3}}}$$
Step 1
We can do this by expressing the denominator as a power of the numerator. In this case, we can rewrite $\sqrt[5]{8 x y^{3}}$ as $(2xy)^{\frac{2}{5}}$. So, the expression becomes: $$ \frac{3 x y^{2}}{(2xy)^{\frac{2}{5}}} $$ Show more…
