Can salesforce calculate numbers where power is not a natural number?

I need to calculate the 12 root for a given number (record field).

Created a formula:

<number field>^(1/12)

The formula editor does not return an error, but no value is returned on my records.

Thought issue might be with power number smaller than 1, so also tried:

<number field>^(1+1/12)/<number field>^(1)

With the same outcome - formula would save but no value returned on my records.

Does anyone know a way to achieve this?# #Formula #Math Calculations
