Power with fractional (rational) exponent
We want to extend the concept of power to all rational indices so that the identities of integer indices (which make it easier to calculate with powers) will still stay true. This requirement is called the principle of constancy (permanent \latex{=} continuance, continuity).
The method is similar to when extending the concept of exponentiation to the integer indices.
The operational properties of powers and roots show a close relationship.
principle of constancy
We can raise a product to a power factor by factor and we can take the root of a product factor by factor too:
\latex{\left( a \times b\right)^n=a^n \times b^n} and \latex{\sqrt[n]{a \times b}=\sqrt[n]{a} \times \sqrt[n]{b}}.
A similar statement is also true for the operations with fractions:
\latex{\left( \frac{a}{b}\right)^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}} and \latex{\sqrt[n]{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\sqrt[n]{a}}{\sqrt[n]{b}}}.
The operations of exponentiation and taking the root are interchangeable:
\latex{\sqrt[n]{k}=\left(\sqrt[n]{a}\right)^k}.
The relation between the two operations makes it possible to extend the exponentiation to fractional exponents.
Let us use the identity \latex{V} of exponentiation and the definition of roots:
\latex{\begin{rcases}\left(7^{\frac{2}{3}}\right)^3=7^2\\\\\left(\sqrt[3]{7^2}\right)^3=7^2\end{rcases}}so let \latex{7^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{7^2}}.
The formal application
of identity \latex{V} for
\latex{n=\frac{2}{3}}:
Based on the
definition of roots:
\latex{7^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{7^2}}
DEFINITION: The \latex{\frac{m}{n}}th power of the positive number \latex{a} is the \latex{n^{\text{th}}} root of the \latex{m^{\text{th}}} power of the base \latex{a}:
\latex{a^{\frac{m}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{a^m}}, where \latex{a \gt 0}; \latex{m \in \Z}; \latex{n \in \N} and \latex{n \geq 2}.
power with fractional exponent
\latex{a^{\frac{m}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{a^m}}
\latex{a \gt 0}; \latex{m \in \Z}; \latex{n \in \N}; \latex{n \geq 2}
Notes:
  1. Every non-integer rational number can be expressed in a form corresponding to the conditions. For example:
\latex{-\frac{7}{3}=\frac{-7}{3}}, \latex{0.23=\frac{23}{100}}, \latex{-1.41=\frac{-141}{100}}.
  1. If we want to extend the concept of exponentiation to all rational indices, then \latex{a \leq 0} cannot occur, since for example the expressions \latex{\left( -5 \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{-5}} or \latex{0^{-\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{0}}} cannot be defined on the set of real numbers.
◆ ◆ ◆
Every rational number can be expressed as the quotient of two whole numbers in infinitely many ways, for example:
\latex{-\frac{7}{3}=\frac{-7}{3}=\frac{-14}{6}=\frac{-21}{9}=\frac{-700}{300}=...}
Is it true that we get the same result when raising a positive number to any form of the rational exponent?
THEOREM: If \latex{a\gt 0}; \latex{k}, \latex{l}, \latex{m}, \latex{n \in \Z}; \latex{n}, \latex{l \geq 2} and \latex{\frac{m}{n}=\frac{k}{l}}, then \latex{a^{\frac{m}{n}}=a^\frac{k}{l}}.

  1. \latex{1^{-\frac{3}{4}};}
  1. \latex{8^{\frac{2}{3}};}
  1. \latex{9^{\frac{3}{2}};}
  1. \latex{27^{-\frac{4}{3}};}
  1. \latex{0.0625^{-\frac{3}{4}}.}
\latex{8^{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{2}{3} \frac{p}{8}}.
Solution
  1. \latex{1^{-\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{1^{-3}}=\sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{1^3}}=\sqrt[4]{1}=1}
  2. \latex{8^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{8^2}=\sqrt[3]{64}=4}
  3. \latex{9^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt{9^3}=\sqrt{\left( 3^2\right)^3}=\sqrt{3^6}=27}
  4. \latex{27^{-\frac{4}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{27^{-4}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{27^4}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{\left(3^3\right)^4}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{3^{12}}}=\frac{1}{3^4}=\frac{1}{81}}
  5. \latex{0.0625^{-\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{\left( 2^{-4}\right)^{-3}}=\sqrt[4]{2^{12}}=2^3=8}
\latex{0.0625=\frac{625}{10,000}=\frac{1}{16}=2^{-4}}
Example 2
Let us express the following powers with only root signs:
  1. \latex{5^{\frac{1}{5}}};
  1. \latex{7^{-\frac{4}{10}}};
  1. \latex{\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{\frac{3}{4}}};
  1. \latex{\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{-\frac{2}{3}}}.
Solution
According to the definition:
  1. \latex{5^{\frac{1}{5}}=\sqrt[5]{5}};
  1. \latex{7^{-\frac{4}{10}}=7^{-\frac{2}{5}}=\sqrt[5]{7^{-2}}=\sqrt[5]{\frac{1}{49}}};
  1. \latex{\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^3}=\sqrt[4]{\frac{64}{125}}};
  1. \latex{\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{-\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{-2}}=\sqrt[3]{9}}.
\latex{\left( \frac{1}{3}\right)^{-2}=\left(3^{-1}\right)^{-2}=3^2=9}

The following question arises: what is the value of the expression mentioned in the introduction?
Based on the definition, calculated by a pocket calculator and rounded to three decimal places:
\latex{7^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{7^2}=\sqrt[3]{49}\approx3.659}
Since we introduced the powers with fractional exponent with the help of roots, there are only “a few” powers the exact values of which can be calculated; often we can only give approximate values.

The power with fractional exponent was defined by applying the identity \latex{V} of powers. We are going to show using some examples that all the identities stay true.

Example 4
Let us rewrite the following expressions as powers of \latex{5}:

In the case of specific calculation examples we can use the identities of both powers and roots.
