How to check if a number is a power of another number?

If x^n  = y, then y is a power of x

Step-by-step explanation:

Take two numbers, x & y

To check whether, y is a a power of x

By hit & trial method, calculate x^n (approximately considered to near y). Try for many such no.s

If at any value x^n = y, then y is a power of x

Ex : Let x = 5, y = 625

By hit & trial, n = 3 or 4,

5^3 = 125 , 5^4 = 625

So, 625 is a power of x

x=30
