$\sqrt[6]{2^{3}} \sqrt[3]{2}$

Step 4.1.4

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt[3]{2}$ as $2^{\frac{1}{3}}$ .

$\sqrt[6]{2^{3}} \cdot 2^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Step 4.1.5

Rewrite $2^{\frac{1}{3}}$ as $2^{\frac{2}{6}}$ .

$\sqrt[6]{2^{3}} \cdot 2^{\frac{2}{6}}$

Step 4.1.6

Rewrite $2^{\frac{2}{6}}$ as $\sqrt[6]{2^{2}}$ .

$\sqrt[6]{2^{3}} \sqrt[6]{2^{2}}$

Step 4.2

Combine using the product rule for radicals.
