Scaling Factors in Precision Machining

As an apprentice in a precision machining workshop, you are reviewing the equipment calibration manual. The manual lists two formulas used to adjust cutting speeds based on scaling multipliers: 243753\sqrt[3]{\frac{24}{375}} and 43244\sqrt[4]{\frac{4}{324}}. According to standard calibration procedures, you must recall and apply a specific first step before attempting to evaluate these higher-order roots.

  1. State the first algebraic step required to simplify these expressions.
  2. Recall and state the common factor that must be canceled from the numerator and denominator of each radical to perform this step.
