(15625/10000)^0.5.
= (15625^0.5)/{10^(4/2)},
= {(5*5*5)(5*5*5*)}^0.5/(10^2).
= 125/100,
= 1.25.

(15625/10000) ^1/2.

We have to cancel the above 2values.
Then we get (25/16) ^1/2,
= 5/4.
The ans is 1.25.

Let we know x2 = a.

So, x = √a.

Therefore by referring to all the options with there square;
Let options
A)1.05 * 1.05 = 1.1025
B)1.25 * 1.25 = 1.5625.

So by this, we recognise option B is correct.

= 15625/10000,
= 25/16,
= √5^2/4^2,
= 5/4,
= 1.25.
It's the easiest way to find the answer.
