8 * log[ log(8) / log( âââââââââââââââââââââââââââ8) ] / [8log(8)]
(there are 27 square root signs)
proof:
let x = âââââââââââââââââââââââââââ8
x = 8^(1/(2^27))
log(x) = log(8) / (2^27)
log(8) / log(x) = 2^27 = 8^9
log[ log(8) / log(x) ] = 9*log(8)
8 * log[ log(8) / log(x) ] = 72*log(8)
8 * log[ log(8) / log(x) ] / [8log(8)] = 9
and whoever voted thumbs down doesn't have a clue about math...

I have no clue, look up whatever problem you have on http://www.google.com , just type in the problem itself such as 2-2 it will show 0, , just ONE answer, no links or popups or anything, the answer itself. Make sure you type in the problem itself, not words or anything... if it is a word problem, you will have to go to a link to get your answer.

8 8888/8888
(the fraction = 1/1 = 1 so this =9 without a + sign like 3 3/4)
