More Steps

Evaluate
1−60x3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−60x3=0−1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−60x3=−1
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
60x3=1
Divide both sides
6060x3=601
Divide the numbers
x3=601
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3x3=3601
