What is the cube root of 228?

Answer

∛228 ≈
6.1091

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 228.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 228 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛228 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
228 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 19 = 2² × 3 × 19
Take out of the root
No prime appears three times, so ∛228 is already in simplest form.
Between cubes
6³ = 216 < 228 < 343 = 7³, so 6 < ∛228 < 7 and ∛228 ≈ 6.1091
