With 9^2=81, the 9^2 can be expanded to 9*9.
With 9^3=729, the 9^3 can be expanded to 9*9*9.
So they are very obvious and easy to understand.
But for something like this:
9^0.5
9^1/3
Although I can still understand the first one is taking the square root of 9, and the second one is taking the cube root of 9. I can't manually expand them easily and I have to use the calculator. Taking 9^0.7 as an example, I can neither treat as the sqaure root nor cube root of 9, so it's even more difficult to understand.
I want to expand them so that they are easier to understand, is this possible?
Thank you.
