yes u have to take cube root because 3 is the denominator.
theres a question in topic 4a variations : sixteen workers can build a wall in 25 days. How many workers are needed if the wall is to be built in 10 days?
i do know how to solve it, but in the thinking process it says: note that the number or workers is inversely propotional to the number of days needed.
How do we know it is inversly or directly in a question like this?

because the more the workers the less time it will take to build.

STATS HELP
Sampling:
each of the 720 students has a four figure admission number. The girls have consecutive odd admin numbers starting at 2001 and the boys have consecutive even admin numbers starting from 2002 .
The school Head used a calculator to generate some random numbers to select students. The numbers were: 0.143 ,0.673 ,0.772, 0.081, 0.219 & 0.5
One of the six numbers that the school head obtained can't be used to select from the population.
a) state which one of the six numbers cannot be used, and explain why it cannot be used.
b) write down the admission numbers of the five selected students
