Please please!! Help needed!!

I need to simplify this:


½
(64x)



(note: ½ is power, I couldn't find the real half power here)

Thanx.

Anything to the power half means square root,
so square root 64x to give 8x

If it were 81x to the power ½ then the answer would be 9x and so on.

Hope this helps.
