The correct Answer is:
To find the cube root of \( 9.261 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the number We can express \( 9.261 \) as a fraction: \[ 9.261 = \frac{9261}{1000} \] ### Step 2: Prime factorization of the numerator Next, we need to find the prime factorization of \( 9261 \). - Check divisibility by \( 2 \): \( 9261 \) is not even, so it is not divisible by \( 2 \). - Check divisibility by \( 3 \): The sum of the digits \( 9 + 2 + 6 + 1 = 18 \) is divisible by \( 3 \). Thus, \( 9261 \) is divisible by \( 3 \). Perform the division: \[ 9261 \div 3 = 3087 \] Continuing with \( 3087 \): \[ 3087 \div 3 = 1029 \] Continuing with \( 1029 \): \[ 1029 \div 3 = 343 \] Now, \( 343 \) is not divisible by \( 3 \), but it is \( 7^3 \): \[ 343 = 7 \times 7 \times 7 \] So, the prime factorization of \( 9261 \) is: \[ 9261 = 3^3 \times 7^3 \] ### Step 3: Prime factorization of the denominator Now, we factor \( 1000 \): \[ 1000 = 10^3 = (2 \times 5)^3 = 2^3 \times 5^3 \] ### Step 4: Combine the factors Now we can combine the factors: \[ 9.261 = \frac{3^3 \times 7^3}{2^3 \times 5^3} \] ### Step 5: Finding the cube root To find the cube root, we take the cube root of the numerator and the denominator separately: \[ \sqrt[3]{9.261} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{3^3 \times 7^3}}{\sqrt[3]{2^3 \times 5^3}} = \frac{3 \times 7}{2 \times 5} \] Calculating this gives: \[ \frac{21}{10} = 2.1 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the cube root of \( 9.261 \) is: \[ \boxed{2.1} \]
