∛63 ≈
3.9791

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 63.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 63 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛63 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
63 = 3 × 3 × 7 = 3² × 7
Take out of the root
No prime appears three times, so ∛63 is already in simplest form.
Between cubes
3³ = 27 < 63 < 64 = 4³, so 3 < ∛63 < 4 and ∛63 ≈ 3.9791
