My First Harvard MIT Math Tournament Problem

If you like this Harvard-MIT Math tournament (HMMT) problem and want to learn more about problem-solving, then check out Brilliant https://brilliant.org/blackpenredpen/ (this link provides a 20% off discount).

I really like this problem because I like how nested radicals can be simplified to some very clean results. This is the cube root question that I showed in the video:    • believe in the math, not wolframalpha  

About HMMT: “Founded in 1998, HMMT is one of the largest and most prestigious high school competitions in the world. Each tournament draws close to 1000 students from around the globe, including top scorers at national and international olympiads. HMMT is entirely student-organized, by students at Harvard, MIT, and nearby schools, many of whom are HMMT alumni themselves.” This description is from their site, https://www.hmmt.org
