Radical form rather than Exponential Form?

Hello guys, I have a Ti Nspire CX II CAS, and I was wondering if there was a way to change answers so they display radical form rather than exponent form.

For example, the question (4 * cube root 81) - (2 * cube root 72) - (cube root 24) displays (10 * 3^(1/3)) - (4 * 3^(2/3))

I would like it to display (10 * cube root 3) - (4 cube root 9)

Is there any setting I can change or any program I can download to aid me in this? Thank you.

If I understood well, you would like your calc to evaluate
$mathjax$4\sqrt[3]{81}-2\sqrt[3]{72}-\sqrt[3]{24}$mathjax$
and display the result as
$mathjax$10\sqrt[3]{3}-4\sqrt[3]{9}$mathjax$
, instead of
$mathjax$10 \cdot 3^{1/3} - 4\cdot 3^{2/3}$mathjax$
.

Unfortunately, such a display doesn't exist for Nspire.
