The N-R method is an iterative method whereby:
x{n+!} = x{n} - f(x{n})/f'(x{n})
and repeat until |x{n+1} - x{n}| < ε for some small number ε which gives the level of accuracy required.
In this case: f(x) = x³ - 12
→ f'(x) = 3x²
→ x{n+1} = x{n} - (x{n}³-12)/(3x{n}²)
The cube root of 12 lies between 2 (2³ = 8) and 3 (3³ = 27), so pick a value close to 2, say 2.1 as an initial guess then:
x{0} = 2.1
→ x{1} = 2.1 - (2.1³ - 12)/(3×2.1²) ≈ 2.3070
→ x{2} = 2.3070 - (2.3070³ - 12)/(3×2.3070²) ≈ 2.2896
and so on.
with this |x{7} - x{6}| < 1×10^-10 → cube root 12 to 9 dp is 2.289428485.

The square root of 13.5 is approximately 3.6742. This value can be calculated using a calculator or by using numerical methods such as the Newton-Raphson method. The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number.
The square root of 52.5 is approximately 7.25. This can be calculated by finding the square root of 52.5 using a calculator or by using numerical methods such as the Newton-Raphson method. The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number.

An improved root finding scheme is to combine the bisection and Newton-Raphson methods. The bisection method guarantees a root (or singularity) and is used to limit the changes in position estimated by the Newton-Raphson method when the linear assumption is poor. However, Newton-Raphson steps are taken in the nearly linear regime to speed convergence. In other words, if we know that we have a root bracketed between our two bounding points, we first consider the Newton-Raphson step. If that would predict a next point that is outside of our bracketed range, then we do a bisection step instead by choosing the midpoint of the range to be the next point. We then evaluate the function at the next point and, depending on the sign of that evaluation, replace one of the bounding points with the new point. This keeps the root bracketed, while allowing us to benefit from the speed of Newton-Raphson.
Then you calculate the cube root!
You can either use a calculator or a numerical method such as Newton-Raphson (for which you will require a calculator!)

Newton's method, also known as Newton-Raphson method, is an iterative technique for finding the roots of a real-valued function. It starts with an initial guess and refines the estimate in each iteration by using the derivative of the function. The method is based on the principle that a function can be approximated locally by a linear function at a root.
The Newton - Raphson method of successive approximations is easily implemented on a computer. You make a guess, test it by squaring it and compare it with the original target. JCF
The Newton-Raphson method works if the equations are differentiable over the domain. Let f(x) be the non-linear equation and f'(x) by its derivative [with respect to x]. Start with a reasonable guess at the answer, x0. Then calculate the sequence xn+1 = xn - f(xn)/f'(xn) for n = 0, 1, 2, … The N-R method should converge to a root.

If you have a calculator, it is simplicity itself. But if not, there is no simple way. You can use trial-and-improvement, but even that becomes cumbersome when you have a number with three or more non-zero digits. Numerical methods, like Newton-Raphson will also become very difficult.
203 = 8000 Let f(x) = 8132 - x3 then f'(x) = the derivative of f(x) = -3x2 Using Newton-Raphson method, a better estimate is 20 - f(x)/f'(x) = 20 - 132/(-3*202) = 20 + 132/1200 = 20 + 11/100 = 20.11
