Answer:
\frac{\sqrt[3]{100x}}{5}


Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression : cube root of
(4x)/(5)

which is equivalent to
\sqrt[3]{(4x)/(5)}

To simplify this we need to make denominator a perfect cube.

So multiply and divide 25 inside the cube root, so that the denominator will become a perfect cube of 5.


\sqrt[3]{(4x)/(5)}=\sqrt[3]{(4x)/(5)*(25)/(25)}\\=\sqrt[3]{(100x)/(125)}\\=\sqrt[3]{(100x)/(5^3)}\\=\frac{\sqrt[3]{100x}}{5}

Answer:


\frac{ \sqrt[3]{100x} }{5}


Step-by-step explanation:


1) Given expression:


\sqrt[3]{ (4x)/(5) }

2) Multiply inside the root by 25 / 25


\sqrt[3]{ (4x)/(5) (25)/(25) } = \sqrt[3]{ (100x)/(125) }= \frac{ \sqrt[3]{100x} }{5}
