How would I calculate 1/2 to the 5?. Can I change it to. 5 to the 5th?

1/2 is 0.50

so, if 1/2 is raised to the power of 5. then, 0.50 is raised to the power of 5.

(1/2) ⁵ in expanded form is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2

1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1*1*1*1*1 / 2*2*2*2*2 = 1/32

1/32 = 0.03125

0.5⁵ in expanded form is 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.03125
