The result of a square to the third power is a number that mutiplied 3 times by itself results in the number inside the square.

For example

[tex]\sqrt[3]{8}=2[/tex]

because 2*2*2=8.

In this case:

[tex]\sqrt[3]{64}=4[/tex]

That is because 4*4*4=64.

Now, we compare this with 17/4:

[tex]\frac{17}{4}=4.25[/tex]

Thus, since 4 is less than 17/4. The one who is right is Sam, because 17/4 is greater than 4
