Is the expression this? \(\Large\rm \frac{1}{2}n^3\) or this? \(\Large\rm \frac{1}{2n^3}\)

Your answer is acceptable @firejay5
OpenStudy (firejay5):
@skullpatrol is there another answer that will work?
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Many...
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
You can say n cubed, the cube of n, n to the third, etc, etc...
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Also one half of n cubed

like half of n cubed would work
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Yes that works.
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
That's why I asked for the exact words, in questions like these.
OpenStudy (firejay5):
didn't I do that, it was at the top of the comment box
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
I meant write out the words you would use to express the symbols 1/2 and n^3.

I could express 1/2 as the reciprocal of two, right?
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Also, n^3 could be read as the third power of n .
OpenStudy (firejay5):
oh okay gotcha
OpenStudy (skullpatrol):
Great questions :-)
