First, let's look at the power rule of exponents, below:

This means when a power is raised to another power, we mutliply the exponents. Applying this rule to our problem and simplifying:

$\begin{gathered} (a^b)^c=a^(bc) \\ (15^{(1)/(5)})^5 \\ =15^{(1)/(5)*5} \\ =15^{(5)/(5)} \\ =15^1 \\ =15 \end{gathered}$

The simplified answer is "15"
