X^2/3 = 64
it is easier to first find square root of 64 and than power it to 3
square root of 64 is 8 which means our equation now looks like:
x = 8^3
now the answer is after powering 8 to 3:
x = 512

Given:
Admission to the local movie theater is $3 for each child and $7 for each adult.
A group of 12 people pay $64 admission.
To find:
The number of children in a group.
Solution:
Let the number of children be x and number of adults be y.
According to the question,
Total persons : ...(i)
Total cost : ...(ii)
Multiply equation (i) by 7 and subtract the result from (ii).
Divide both sides by -4.
Therefore, the number of children is 5.
