It is not the cube root Zac, it is the 4th root.

 

$$2^{1/4}=\sqrt[4]{2}$$    

 

$${{\mathtt{2}}}^{\left({\frac{{\mathtt{1}}}{{\mathtt{4}}}}\right)} = {\mathtt{1.189\: \!207\: \!115\: \!002\: \!721\: \!1}}$$

 

It is an irrational number so this is an approximation :)

$$2^{1/4}=$$ the 4th root of 2 $$\approx$$ 1.189

(I fixed it)
