If you have a bookcase that is 3 feet tall, 1 foot wide, and
4 feet long, how much space do you have for books?

a. 3/4 ÷ 1/8 = 6

step-by-step explanation:

in the question, the number line represents 3/4 divided into 6 equal units. each arrow represents a unit and there are a total of six arrows.

the size of each unit is 1/8 as shown.

showing that 1/8 divides 3/4 into 6 divisions:

3/4 ÷ 1/8

= 3/4 x 8/1

= 3/1 x 8/4

= 3 x 2

= 6

hence, the number line represents six divisions given by 3/4 ÷ 1/8.

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
