Evaluate
16−(24x3)×20
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
16−(24x3)×20=0
Multiply the terms
16−24x3×20=0
Multiply the numbers
16−480x3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−480x3=0−16
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−480x3=−16
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
480x3=16
Divide both sides
480480x3=48016
Divide the numbers
x3=48016
Cancel out the common factor 16
x3=301
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3301
Calculate
x=3301
