what is the irrational cube root 3√40 rewritten as a product of an integer and another irrational cube root

3 answers

To rewrite the irrational cube root ∛40 as a product of an integer and another irrational cube root, we first need to find a perfect cube factor of 40.

The factors of 40 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40.

However, none of these factors are perfect cubes.

Now, let's calculate the cube root of 40: ∛40 ≈ 3.107

Since 40 is not a perfect cube, ∛40 is an irrational number. It cannot be rewritten as a product of an integer and another irrational cube root.
do it right
I apologize for my previous mistake. Let's correct it.

To rewrite the irrational cube root ∛40 as a product of an integer and another irrational cube root, we need to find a perfect cube factor of 40.

The factors of 40 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40.

The largest perfect cube factor of 40 is 8, which is equal to 2^3.

So, we can rewrite ∛40 as ∛(8×5).

This can be further simplified as 2∛5.

Therefore, the irrational cube root ∛40 can be rewritten as a product of an integer (2) and another irrational cube root (∛5).
