Want to simplify a radical whose radicand is not a perfect square? No sweat! Check out this tutorial and see how to write that radicand as its prime factorization. Then, rewrite any duplicate factors using exponents, break up the radical using the product property of square roots, and simplify. To see this process step-by-step, watch this tutorial!
Adding radicals isn't too difficult. As long as they have like radicands, you can just treat them as if they were variables and combine like ones together! This tutorial takes you through the steps of adding radicals with like radicands. Take a look!
To find the cube root of a number, start by breaking that number into its prime factorization. Rewrite those factors using exponents and break up the radicals using the Product Property of Radicals. Simplify and you're done! Watch this tutorial to see the entire process step-by-step.
You can rewrite an expression with a rational exponent a few different ways. This can come in handy when your solving a problem involving rational exponents. This tutorial shows you how it works! You can even practice with examples!
