$\large{\sqrt [ 3 ]{ 1000\% } =\sqrt [ 3 ]{ \frac { 1000 }{ 100 } } =\sqrt [ 3 ]{ 10 } \approx 2.15}$

Percentages are tricky that way.

Yes. I almost instinctively took the third root of 1000 first which is wrong. Thank you for your solution!

1000% = 10.0. so the cube root = cube root of 10 (x 100). Ed Gray
