3162x6=x2(336)

Explanation:

We can take a minus out of the root, because 1=(1)3

3162x6

We know that x6=x2x2x2 or x6=(x2)3, so we can take a x2 out of the root

x23162

Lastly, all we have to do is factor the 162, so

1622
0813
0273
0093
0033
001234

So we can take a 3 out of the root, leaving a 23, that is, 6 inside it. So

3162x6=x2(336)
