Here we will show you how to calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 28. In other words, we will calculate ∛8 - ∛28.
To calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 28, we will first take the cube root of each number and then find the difference. Here is the math and the answer:
∛8 = 2
∛28 ≈ 3.0366
2 - 3.0366 = -1.0366
∛8 - ∛28 ≈ -1.0366
For your convenience, we have also included the answer to the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 28 in its simplest radical form:
