The inverse operation of a cube is cube root. The symbol used to represent the cube root is \(\sqrt[3]{}\).
 
A cube root is a unique value that gives us the original number when we multiply itself by three times.
 
The cube root of \(a\) is denoted by \(\sqrt[3]{a}\) or \(a^{\frac{1}{3}}\).
Example:
Find the cube root of \(64\).
 
Solution:
 
\(\sqrt[3]{64} = \sqrt[3]{4 \times 4 \times 4}\) \(= \sqrt[3]{4^3}\) \( = 4\)
 
Thereforethe cube root of \(64\) is \(4\).
By the observation of the above example, we can conclude that:
 
The cube of \(4\) is \(64\).
 
The cube root of \(64\) is \(4\).
