Evaluate: (0.064) - \(\frac{1}{3}\)

  • A. \(\frac{5}{2}\)
  • B. \(\frac{2}{5}\)
  • C. -\(\frac{2}{5}\)
  • D. -\(\frac{5}{2}\)

Correct Answer: A. \(\frac{5}{2}\)

Explanation

(0.064)\(^{- \frac{1}{3}}\)

= (\(\frac{64}{1000}\))\(^{-\frac{1}{3}}\)

= 3\(\sqrt{\frac{1000}{64}}\)

= \(\frac{10}{4}\)

= \(\frac{5}{2}\)
