0.3088

Explanation:

Expressing in simplest radical form means simplifying a radical so that there are no more square roots or cube roots or 4^th roots, etc. left to find. It also means removing any radicals in the denominator of a fraction.

(25/64)^(5/4) = (25)^(5/4) * (1/64)^(5/4)

= ((25)^5)^(1/4) * ((1/64)^5)^(1/4)

= (9765625)^(1/4) / (1073741824)^(1/4)

= 55.9017 / 181.0193 = 0.3088
