What is the cube root of 50?

Answer

∛50 ≈
3.684

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 50.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 50 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛50 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
50 = 2 × 5 × 5 = 2 × 5²
Take out of the root
No prime appears three times, so ∛50 is already in simplest form.
Between cubes
3³ = 27 < 50 < 64 = 4³, so 3 < ∛50 < 4 and ∛50 ≈ 3.684

Can ∛50 be simplified?

No: no prime appears three times in 50, so its only cube factor is 1 and ∛50 is already in simplest form. Since 3³ = 27 < 50 < 64 = 4³, ∛50 lies between 3 and 4: ∛50 ≈ 3.684.

Is ∛50 a rational number?

No: 50 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 ∛50 is irrational; its decimal never ends and never repeats: ∛50 ≈ 3.684.
