Respuesta :

The answer is 2. Because let a=32 1/5 then it would be a^5 = 32
2•2•2•2•2=2^5= 32
a=2

The required expression for 32^(1/5) is 2 as a whole number.

What is simplification ?

Simplification means reducing the expression in a simpler form using various operations. It eliminates unnecessary diversiry and variety.

The given expression is 32^(1/5).

We have to reduce it in whole number.

Thus, 32 can be written in multiples of 2.

⇒       32 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

⇒       32 = 2⁵

Therefore,

     32^(1/5)  = (2⁵)^(1/5)

Using the law of exponents,

   (2⁵)^(1/5) =  2^(5/5)

⇒  (2⁵)^(1/5) =  2¹

⇒   32^(1/5)  = 2

Hence,the required expression for 32^(1/5) is 2 as a whole number.
