16 cube root?
To reduce the given radical to its simplest terms, we need to simplify the cube root of 16.
First, we need to find the prime factorization of 16:
16 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2
Now, group the factors in sets of three because we are taking the cube root:
∛16 = ∛(2 * 2 * 2 * 2) = 2 * ∛(2)
= 2∛2
So, the radical ∛16 simplifies to 2∛2. Therefore, the answer is:
b = 2
c = 2
n = 3
Enter the simplified radical as "2*(2)^(1/3)" without the quotations.
