In the context of cube roots, if you have 12 'B's, how many groups of three can you form?

• Five groups

• Three groups

• Two groups

• Four groups

What does the number outside the radical indicate when simplifying radicals?

• The number of groups formed

• The number of variables

• The type of root

• The number of leftovers

How do you handle variables when simplifying radicals with fourth roots?

• Group them in fours

• Group them in pairs

• Ignore the variables

• Group them in threes

What is the simplified form inside the radical when dealing with a fifth root and the number 243?

• 3

• 9

• 81

When simplifying a square root, what happens to numbers that cannot form pairs?
