Answer

Diverges

Work Step by Step

Re-write the given series as $\Sigma_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{\sqrt[4] {n^{3}}}=\Sigma_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{n^{3/4}}$ Here, we can see that the given series shows a p-series with $p=\dfrac{3}{4}$ Next, $p=\dfrac{3}{4} \lt 1$ This implies that the given series diverges by the p-series test.
