First, you should know how to cube a

number because taki

ng the cube root is the opposite of to cube a

number.

To cube a

number, multiply that

number 3 times.

2 cubed = 23 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8

3 cubed = 33 = 3 x 3 x 3 = 27

4 cubed = 43 = 4 x 4 x 4 = 64

A cube root goes the other directio

n:

2 cubed is 8, so the cube root of 8 is 2.

3

cubed is 27, so the cube root of 27 is 3

.

4 cubed is 64, so the cube root of 64 is 4.
