$$\sqrt[5]{32} = 2$$

$$\sqrt[5]{243} = 3$$

Since 34 is wayyyyyyyy closer to 32 than it is to 243, we can conclude that $$\sqrt[5]{34}$$ is just a teeny bit bigger than 2

So, $$2 \times \sqrt[5]{34} =$$(2)(a number a teeny bit bigger than 2)
= a number a teeny bit bigger than 4

Cheers,
Brent

Are we able to use the calculator for this kind of question? Does test calculator have options of squaring and square rooting any numbers?

The onscreen calculator has a square root key, but not a 5th root key.

Here's our video on the GRE's onscreen calculator:
