I have been reading this Wiki page and whilst I've been able to work through most of the examples, one is eluding me.

How do I break this equation down?

I have tried 10^1/30

Thanks in advance.

Also, the 1/30 as a power can be rearranged....

10 = 1.079775^30
Now you're just trying to confuse me spin

(only kidding)

Very interesting, but as a non mathematician, I can't see the point of such vast numbers...!
