Simplify (x^(1/3))(x^(1/6))

$(x^{\frac{1}{3}}) (x^{\frac{1}{6}})$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$x^{\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}}$

To write $\frac{1}{3}$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{2}{2}$ .

$x^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{2} + \frac{1}{6}}$

Write each expression with a common denominator of $6$ , by multiplying each by an appropriate factor of $1$ .

Multiply $\frac{1}{3}$ by $\frac{2}{2}$ .

$x^{\frac{2}{3 \cdot 2} + \frac{1}{6}}$

Multiply $3$ by $2$ .

$x^{\frac{2}{6} + \frac{1}{6}}$

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$x^{\frac{2 + 1}{6}}$

Add $2$ and $1$ .

$x^{\frac{3}{6}}$

Cancel the common factor of $3$ and $6$ .

Factor $3$ out of $3$ .

$x^{\frac{3 (1)}{6}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $3$ out of $6$ .

$x^{\frac{3 \cdot 1}{3 \cdot 2}}$

Cancel the common factor.

$x^{\frac{3 \cdot 1}{3 \cdot 2}}$
