Answer: 3

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. Find the prime factorization of 27:

`27=3*3*3` or
`27=3^(3)`

2. The index of the radical is 3, therefore, you have rewrite it as following:

`\sqrt[3]{27}=\sqrt[3]{3^(3)}=3^{(3)/(3)}=3^(1)=3`

3. Therefore, as you can see, the answer is 3.
