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.

It means the number that is times by itself three times to make the number you have got. Kinda hard to explain.
