Here we will show you how to calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 71. In other words, we will calculate ∛8 - ∛71.
To calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 71, we will first take the cube root of each number and then find the difference. Here is the math and the answer:
∛8 = 2
∛71 ≈ 4.1408
2 - 4.1408 = -2.1408
∛8 - ∛71 ≈ -2.1408
For your convenience, we have also included the answer to the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 71 in its simplest radical form:
