  1. Convert to Radical Form: Convert 12523125^{\frac{2}{3}} into radical form.\newlineThe expression 12523125^{\frac{2}{3}} can be rewritten as the cube root of 125125 squared, which is 12523\sqrt[3]{125^2}.
  2. Calculate Value: Calculate the value of 12523125^{\frac{2}{3}}.\newlineSince 125125 is 535^3, we have (53)23\sqrt[3]{(5^3)^2}, which simplifies to 52=255^2 = 25.
  3. Convert to Radical Form: Convert 161216^{\frac{1}{2}} into radical form.\newlineThe expression 161216^{\frac{1}{2}} is the square root of 1616, which is 16\sqrt{16}.
  4. Calculate Value: Calculate the value of 161/216^{1/2}. The square root of 1616 is 44, since 42=164^2 = 16.
  5. Convert to Radical Form: Convert 161216^{-\frac{1}{2}} into radical form.\newlineThe expression 161216^{-\frac{1}{2}} is the reciprocal of the square root of 1616, which is 116\frac{1}{\sqrt{16}}.
  6. Calculate Value: Calculate the value of 161/216^{-1/2}.\newlineSince the square root of 1616 is 44, the reciprocal is 1/41/4.
  7. Convert to Radical Form: Convert (181)14\left(\frac{1}{81}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}} into radical form.\newlineThe expression (181)14\left(\frac{1}{81}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}} is the fourth root of 181\frac{1}{81}, which is 1814\sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{81}}.
  8. Calculate Value: Calculate the value of (181)14\left(\frac{1}{81}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}. Since 8181 is 343^4, we have 1344\sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{3^4}}, which simplifies to 13\frac{1}{3}.
