Estimating the Cube Root Range for 150

To find the range where the cube root of 150 lies, we need to find two consecutive integers whose cubes bracket 150.

Cube Root Estimation

Let the number be '$N = 150$'. We are looking for a value '$x$' such that $x^3 = N$. We can test the cubes of integers:

  • Calculate the cube of 5: $5^3 = 5 \times 5 \times 5 = 125$.
  • Calculate the cube of 6: $6^3 = 6 \times 6 \times 6 = 216$.

Determining the Range

We observe that 150 falls between the calculated cubes:

$125 < 150 < 216$

Substituting the integer cubes back:

$5^3 < 150 < 6^3$

Taking the cube root of all parts of the inequality:

$\sqrt[3]{5^3} < \sqrt[3]{150} < \sqrt[3]{6^3}$ $\implies 5 < \sqrt[3]{150} < 6$

Therefore, the cube root of 150 lies between 5 and 6.
