Step-by-step explanation:

First, we are going to use the law of fractional exponents:

We can infer form our expression that  and , so let's replace the values:

Notice that we can also decompose 16 into prime factors to get , so we can rewrite our expression as follows:

Finally, we can use the rule of radicals: , so:

equal to
