To determine

To solve x3=15 and express the answer as a common fraction and a decimal fraction.

Answer to Problem 1A

The expression x3=15 is solved and expressed as common fraction as 1125 and as decimal fraction as 81000.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Given expression, x3=15

Calculation:

We know that a common fraction is a fraction in which numerator and denominator are both integers, as opposed to fractions.

And a decimal fraction is a fraction whose denominator is 10 or a multiple of 10 like 100, 1000,10000.

Given expression, x3=15

Taking cube of both sides,

  x=( 1 5)3=1125

Common fraction: 1125

Decimal fraction: 1125=0.0008=81000

Hence, the expression x3=15 is solved and expressed as common fraction as 1125 and as decimal fraction as 81000.
