It is about 2.236

You want a number X such that X^6=125.

125= 5*5*5= 5^3.

So, X^6=5^3.

3=6*(1/2)= 6/2.

So, X^6= 5^(6/2).

Take the sixth root on both sides of the equation. This gives:

X= 5^(1/2)= Sqr Rt (5) is the number.

What are the next 2 numbers in this pattern 64 243 256 125?

So the pattern would be 0 up to the 8 which equals 0. Next would be 1 up to the 7th which equals 1. Next the sequence would be 2 up to the 6th which equals 64, 3 up to the th5 which equals 243, 4 up to the 4th which equals 256, 5 up to the 3rd equals 125, 6 up to the 2nd equals 36, 7 up to the 1st equals 7, and 8 up to the 0 equals 1.


What in sixth square number?

do you mean to multiply a number by the sixth power? if so, an example could be 3^6 (3 to the 6th) which would be 3x3x3x3x3x3 which equals 729 or do you mean 6 squared? (6^2) 6x6 = 36


Why is it that 10 raised to the power 0 is equal to 1?

Think about how you do divisions that take this form: a to the power x divided by a to the power y where a is a real number and x and y are whole numbers with x being greater than y.2 to the 6th power is 64. 2 to the 4th power is 16.To do the division: 2 to the 6th power divided by 2 to the 4th power, you simply subtract exponents. 6 minus 4 is 2. The answer is 2 to the power 2, or 2 squared. If you divide 10 to the power 456 by 10 to the power 456, you are simply dividing a number by itself, which will give you the answer 1. It's easy enough to see that when you subtract exponents the answer will be zero. No matter what the exponents of the same base, if you are dividing a number by itself, subtracting exponents will give you 0.This has nothing to do with dividing by zero. Any real number to the power zero equals 1.


What is 6 to the 6th power divided by 6 to the 2nd power?

when dividing a number to a certain power by the same number to a different power, subtract the exponents 6 to the 6 divided by 6 to the 2 = 6 to the 4 power = 1296


What is 64 written as a power?

Oh honey, 64 written as a power is 2 to the 6th power. That's right, 2 multiplied by itself 6 times. So, if you're feeling fancy, you can strut around saying 64 equals 2 to the 6th power like the math boss you are.
