Teacher asked the students to find the cube root of a natural number but she did not mention the base. Students assumed the base found the cube root. Each student got an integer. Find the sum of digits of that number

Bad teacher!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

found the square root of a natural number but didn't mention the base?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I desperately want to say 1, but I am not sure why...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wtp? maybe the number was written in base 2? 16?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lololol probably 1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The key is they all select any old base and get an integer regardless..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe the number was 1000000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
