What is the cubed root of 275÷7

almond37 [142]

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an irrational number.

$\sqrt[3]{275:7}=\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{275}{7}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{275}}{\sqrt[3]{7}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{275}\cdot\sqrt[3]{7^2}}{\sqrt[3]{7}\cdot\sqrt[3]{7^2}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{275\cdot49}}{\sqrt[3]{7\cdot7^2}}\\\\=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{13475}}{\sqrt[3]{7^3}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{13475}}{7}=\dfrac{1}{7}\sqrt[3]{13475}$
