Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you "raise a number to a power," you're multiplying the number by itself, and the "power" represents how many times you do so. So 2 raised to the 3rd power is the same as 2 x 2 x 2, which equals 8. When you raise a number to a fraction, however, you're going in the opposite direction -- you're trying to find the "root" of the number.
