technical question about CBE

EEdite6y ago
Hi, I practice a bit on CBE platform, but still can't get clear where and how to write if we need square root or digits in power of 2 or etc ? It is neither in Excell, nor in word normally possible. Thanks!

For powers you can use the function: =POWER(number,power) So 5^3 is: =POWER(5,3) For the square roots you can use the function: =SQRT(number) For other roots (e.g. the fifth root) use the POWER function, remembering that the 5th root of a number is the same as taking the number to the power of 1/5 Do check the ACCA resources on the following page (especially the CBE Guidance Document): https://www.accaglobal.com/us/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/p4/cbe-preparation.html
