The correct Answer is:
To find the cube root of 3375, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Set the number Let \( a = 3375 \). ### Step 2: Factor the number We will factor 3375 into its prime factors. 1. Divide by 3: - \( 3375 \div 3 = 1125 \) 2. Divide 1125 by 3: - \( 1125 \div 3 = 375 \) 3. Divide 375 by 3: - \( 375 \div 3 = 125 \) 4. Now, 125 is not divisible by 3, so we divide by 5: - \( 125 \div 5 = 25 \) 5. Divide 25 by 5: - \( 25 \div 5 = 5 \) 6. Finally, divide 5 by 5: - \( 5 \div 5 = 1 \) So, the prime factorization of 3375 is: \[ 3375 = 3^3 \times 5^3 \] ### Step 3: Use the cube root property We want to find \( a^{1/3} \): \[ a^{1/3} = (3^3 \times 5^3)^{1/3} \] ### Step 4: Apply the property of exponents Using the property \( (a^m \times b^m)^{n} = a^{m \cdot n} \times b^{m \cdot n} \): \[ (3^3 \times 5^3)^{1/3} = 3^{3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}} \times 5^{3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}} \] \[ = 3^1 \times 5^1 \] \[ = 3 \times 5 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the final result \[ 3 \times 5 = 15 \] ### Final Answer The cube root of 3375 is \( 15 \). ---
