Integer to the 1/3 power representation

I'm solving a succession problem which involves 24^(1/3), but when I go to compute this it returns it as 2 · 3^(1/3) [I can't upload an image because I have no points my apologies]

    reset()
a=[(24)^(1/3)]
for n in [1..50]:
    a.append((24 + a[n-1])^(1/3))
a[4].show()

Any ideas why this is happening?
