Step 1 :Rewrite \(\left(\frac{16}{17}\right)^{3}\) as \(\left(1-\frac{1}{17}\right)^{3}\), which is in the form of \(\left(1+x^{2}\right)^{-3}\) where \(x^2 = -\frac{1}{17}\).
Step 2 :Substitute \(x^2\) into the approximation and calculate the result.
Step 3 :\(x^2 = -0.058823529411764705\)
Step 4 :approximation = 1.199461635925308
Step 5 :Final Answer: The approximation of \(\left(\frac{16}{17}\right)^{3}\) is \(\boxed{1.199}\).
