I don't quite understand how you arrived at your answer of 266.66 as the cuberoot of 800.
\n" ); document.write( "The volume of a cube with side s, is given by:
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+s%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"s%5E3+=+800\" Take the cuberoot of both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "\"s+=+9.283\" cm.
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+s%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+%289.283%29%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V+=+799.954\" cu.cm
\n" ); document.write( "
