True/False

A manufacturing technician is auditing a material stress formula that contains the expression 28x4\frac{2}{\sqrt[4]{8x}}. To remove the radical from the denominator, the technician's manual states that after rewriting the denominator as 23x4\sqrt[4]{2^3x}, both the numerator and denominator must be multiplied by 2x34\sqrt[4]{2x^3}.

True or False: Multiplying by 2x34\sqrt[4]{2x^3} correctly provides the missing factors needed to create perfect fourth powers in the denominator.
