Answer:

C) Between 3 and 4, but closer to 4

Explanation:


This question is asking us what the cube root of 52 is, or what number multiplied by itself 3 times gives us 52.

3 cubed (3x3x3) gives us 27
4 cubed (4x4x4) gives us 64

Therefore, since 52 lies between 27 and 64 we know it's between 3 and 4.

Now we need to find which it closers to, so we subtract both numbers from 64 and take the absolute value to find which ones closer.

64-52 = 12 -> |12| = 12
27-52 = -25 -> |-25| = 25

4 cubed is closer, and therefore it's closer to 4.

C) Between 3 and 4, but closer to 4
