To simplify \( 1,000^{2/3} \), we start by expressing \( 1,000 \) in terms of its prime factors:
\[
1,000 = 10^3
\]
Now we can rewrite \( 1,000^{2/3} \):
\[
1,000^{2/3} = (10^3)^{2/3}
\]
Using the exponent multiplication rule \( (a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n} \), we get:
\[
(10^3)^{2/3} = 10^{3 \cdot \frac{2}{3}} = 10^2
\]
Calculating \( 10^2 \):
\[
10^2 = 100
\]
Thus, \( 1,000^{2/3} = 100 \).
