King Henry the Eighth had 6 wives. How many wives did Henry the Sixth have?
I don't understand the algebra part. Shouldn't this question be in history?
If H^8 =6 then H = 6 ^1/8
So H^6 = 6 ^ 6/8 = 6 ^ .75 = 3.83 wives (appx )
No, this is unrelated to History. 3.83 is, of course, the correct answer.
