What is the cube root of 2,401?

Answer

∛2,401 =
7∛7 ≈ 13.3905

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 2,401.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 2,401 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛2,401 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
2,401 = (7 × 7 × 7) × 7 = 7⁴
Take out of the root
∛2,401 = ∛(7³ × 7) = 7∛7
Between cubes
13³ = 2,197 < 2,401 < 2,744 = 14³, so 13 < ∛2,401 < 14 and ∛2,401 ≈ 13.3905
