What is the cube root of 1,024?

Answer

∛1,024 =
8∛2 ≈ 10.0794

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 1,024.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 1,024 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛1,024 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
1,024 = (2 × 2 × 2) × (2 × 2 × 2) × (2 × 2 × 2) × 2 = 2¹⁰
Take out of the root
∛1,024 = ∛((2³)³ × 2) = 2³ × ∛2 = 8∛2
Between cubes
10³ = 1,000 < 1,024 < 1,331 = 11³, so 10 < ∛1,024 < 11 and ∛1,024 ≈ 10.0794
