Here we will show you how to calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 80. In other words, we will calculate ∛8 - ∛80.
To calculate the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 80, we will first take the cube root of each number and then find the difference. Here is the math and the answer:
∛8 = 2
∛80 ≈ 4.3089
2 - 4.3089 = -2.3089
∛8 - ∛80 ≈ -2.3089
For your convenience, we have also included the answer to the cube root of 8 minus the cube root of 80 in its simplest radical form:
