    What is the cube root of 128?

    Answer

    ∛128 =
    4∛2 ≈ 5.0397

    Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 128.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 128 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛128 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

    Prime factors
    128 = (2 × 2 × 2) × (2 × 2 × 2) × 2 = 2⁷
    Take out of the root
    ∛128 = ∛((2³)² × 2) = 2² × ∛2 = 4∛2
    Between cubes
    5³ = 125 < 128 < 216 = 6³, so 5 < ∛128 < 6 and ∛128 ≈ 5.0397

    FAQ

    What is the cube root of 128?

    ∛128 = 4∛2 ≈ 5.0397

    How to simplify ∛128?

    Factor 128 into primes: 128 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2. Each triple of equal factors is a cube and comes out of the root as one factor; the rest stays under it: ∛128 = ∛((2³)² × 2) = 4∛2.

    Is ∛128 a rational number?

    No: 128 is not the cube of a rational number, and the cube root of a fraction p/q in lowest terms is rational only when p and q are both cubes. So ∛128 is irrational; its decimal never ends and never repeats: ∛128 ≈ 5.0397.
