Answer

Choice B

Work Step by Step

Multiplying both the numerator and denominator by $ b ,$ the given expression, $ \sqrt[]{\dfrac{a}{b^3}} ,$ is equivalent to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} \sqrt[]{\dfrac{a}{b^3}} \\\\= \sqrt[]{\dfrac{a}{b^3}\dfrac{b}{b}} \\\\= \sqrt[]{\dfrac{a\cdot b}{b^3\cdot b}} .\end{array} Hence, $\text{ Choice B .}$
