What is the cube root of 84?

Answer

∛84 ≈
4.3795

Real cube root: the only number whose cube is 84.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. 84 is not the cube of a rational number, so ∛84 is irrational: its decimal expansion never ends and never repeats.

Prime factors
84 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 2² × 3 × 7
Take out of the root
No prime appears three times, so ∛84 is already in simplest form.
Between cubes
4³ = 64 < 84 < 125 = 5³, so 4 < ∛84 < 5 and ∛84 ≈ 4.3795
