Hey Ranjini, there is no formula to use in this problem.

See here carefully,
we write 2/10 = 0.2.
3/10 = 0.3.
4/10 = 0.4.
And so on..

2/100 = 0.02.
3/100 = 0.03.
4/100 = 0.04.
and so on...

So we can write,
216/1000000 = 0.000216.

And know that,
216/1000000=6*6*6/100*100*100.

So we can say that,
The cube root of 0.000216.
or 216/1000000 = 6/100 = 0.06.
