Homework Statement
Given F(x_1,x_2,...,x_i,...,x_n) = nth-root(x_1*x_2*...*x_i*...*x_n), how do I take the partial derivative with respect to x_i, where x_i is an arbitrary variable?

The Attempt at a Solution
Would it just be:
(1/n)(x_1*x_2*...*x_i*...*x_n)^((1/n)-1)*(x_1*x_2*...*x_i-1*x_i+1*...*x_n)?
