Calculation:
Step 1: Split into factors
644=2×2×2×2×2×24
=(2×2×2×2)×2×24
=(2)4×2×24
=(2)4×44
2 is the perfect 4th power factor
Step 2: Using product property abn=anbn
K(2)4×44=(2)4444
Step 3: Using rule xa=x1a to take the perfect 4th power factor out of the radical.
(2)44=244=21=2
Step 4: (2)4444=244
Therefore, we have
644=244
Conclusion: 644=244
