Couple of ways to go about this...let's do it the easy way

 

1/3 lnx + .69315 - 1.0986 =3      Simplify5

 

1/3 ln x = 3.4055

ln x = 10.164

x =  27346.67

 

 

 

ANOTHER way

ln (((x^1/3) (2)) /3) = 3

(x^1/3  *2)/3 = e^3

x^1/3 =  3/2  *  e^3

x  =  (3/2 * e^3 )^3 = 27347. 9    (difference due to rounding in the first example)
