∛66 ≈
4.0412

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 66.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 66 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛66 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
66 = 2 × 3 × 11
Take out of the root
No prime appears three times, so ∛66 is already in simplest form.
Between cubes
4³ = 64 < 66 < 125 = 5³, so 4 < ∛66 < 5 and ∛66 ≈ 4.0412
