Question

Which is equivalent to 216^1/3 A. 3 B. 6 C. 36 D. 72

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking what is the cubic root of 216? Conventionally, this is written two ways:

$216^{1/3}$ or $\sqrt[3]{216}$

You should be familiar with square roots. $\sqrt{25}=5$ because 5 x 5 = 25

For cubic roots, you are asking __ x __ x __ = 216 ?

Since 6 x 6 x 6 = 216, $216^{1/3}=6$
