Answer:

The value of x in simplest fraction is
(2)/(5)

Explanation:

Given : Equation
x^3=(8)/(125)

We have to find the value of x in simplest fraction.

Consider the given equation
x^3=(8)/(125)

writing 8 as 2 × 2 ×2

and writing 125 as 5 × 5 × 5

Thus,
x^3=(8)/(125)=(2* 2* 2)/(5* 5* 5)

re-written as
x^3=((2)/(5))^3

Comparing both side, we have,


x=(2)/(5)

Thus, The value of x in simplest fraction is
(2)/(5)
