$${\sqrt[{{\mathtt{{\mathtt{3}}}}}]{{\mathtt{x}}}} = {\sqrt{{\frac{{\mathtt{x}}}{{\sqrt[{{\mathtt{{\mathtt{3}}}}}]{{\mathtt{x}}}}}}}}$$

it solves out fine manually and all its just interesting.

Lets just proove this TheJonyMyster

 

$$\\\sqrt[n]{x}=\sqrt[(n-1)]{\frac{x}{\sqrt[n]{x}}}\\\\
RHS=\sqrt[(n-1)]{x^{1-\frac{1}{n}}}\\\\
RHS=\sqrt[(n-1)]{x^{\frac{n-1}{n}}}\\\\
RHS=x^{\frac{n-1}{n}}\right)^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\\\\
RHS=x^{(1/n)}\\\\
RHS=\sqrt[n]{x}\\\\
RHS=LHS$$

It's true as long as x is greater than zero.

Yes TheJonyMyster, it is cool how roots work :)

yeah, positive x cause of imaginary numbers. also it works for any $${\sqrt[{{\mathtt{{\mathtt{n}}}}}]{{\mathtt{x}}}} = {\sqrt[{{\mathtt{\left({\mathtt{n}}{\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\mathtt{1}}\right)}}}]{{\frac{{\mathtt{x}}}{{\sqrt[{{\mathtt{{\mathtt{n}}}}}]{{\mathtt{x}}}}}}}}$$
