I didn't think of the 6th root approach, so i just when through and counted the cubes (since there would only be 10) and I found that only 1 and 64 are both squares and cubes.

So, you will need to go a little further with explanations of why but the way to go about this one is:

$ \lfloor \sqrt{1000} \rfloor + \lfloor \sqrt[3]{1000} \rfloor - \lfloor \sqrt[6]{1000} \rfloor $

To see why this is correct, draw a Venn Diagram, and take out the common terms.
