    What is the cube root of 500?

    Answer

    ∛500 =
    5∛4 ≈ 7.937

    Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 500.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 500 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛500 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

    Prime factors
    500 = 2 × 2 × (5 × 5 × 5) = 2² × 5³
    Take out of the root
    ∛500 = ∛(5³ × 4) = 5∛4
    Between cubes
    7³ = 343 < 500 < 512 = 8³, so 7 < ∛500 < 8 and ∛500 ≈ 7.937

    FAQ

    What is the cube root of 500?

    ∛500 = 5∛4 ≈ 7.937

    How to simplify ∛500?

    Factor 500 into primes: 500 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 5. Each triple of equal factors is a cube and comes out of the root as one factor; the rest stays under it: ∛500 = ∛(5³ × 4) = 5∛4.

    Is ∛500 a rational number?

    No: 500 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 ∛500 is irrational; its decimal never ends and never repeats: ∛500 ≈ 7.937.
