\root[6]{44}

Explanation:

Template standard: given format...

a^(b/c)

converting to radical format generates the form

\root[c]{a^b}

Please note that this is not a square root! It is a root function that varies depending on the value of c.


You are given the problem 44^(1/6). Based on the template, the respective variables are as follows:
a=44, b=1, c=6
Now applying this to the radical format:

\root[c]{a^b}\leftrightarrow\root[6]{44^1}

Since anything to the 1^{th} power is the number itself, your answer is...

\root[6]{44}
