Simplify
^3(-27/62)
----------------
I assume you mean "cube root of (-27/62)"
If so, you get;
= (-3)/[cube root (62)]

Do you mean %28-27%2F64%29%5E%281%2F3%29 ? The cube root of (-27/64)? 62 looks like a typo.
---------
%28-27%2F64%29%5E%281%2F3%29
= -3/4
The cube root of -27 is -3.
The cube root of 64 is 4.
To check:
(-3/4)*(-3/4)*(-3/4) = -27/64

If you really meant 62, or if you want a harder way to do it, email me.
