1. **State the problem:** Simplify the expression $$\frac{\left(x^{-\frac{1}{3}} \cdot \sqrt[3]{x^2}\right)^3}{x^{-2}}$$.
2. **Recall the rules:**
- When multiplying powers with the same base, add exponents: $$a^m \cdot a^n = a^{m+n}$$.
- When raising a power to another power, multiply exponents: $$(a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}$$.
- Division of powers with the same base subtracts exponents: $$\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$$.
- The cube root can be written as a fractional exponent: $$\sqrt[3]{x^2} = x^{\frac{2}{3}}$$.
3. **Rewrite the expression inside the parentheses:**
$$x^{-\frac{1}{3}} \cdot x^{\frac{2}{3}} = x^{-\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{3}} = x^{\frac{1}{3}}$$.
4. **Raise the result to the power 3:**
$$\left(x^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^3 = x^{\frac{1}{3} \cdot 3} = x^1 = x$$.
5. **Divide by $$x^{-2}$$:**
$$\frac{x}{x^{-2}} = x^{1 - (-2)} = x^{1 + 2} = x^3$$.
6. **Final answer:** $$x^3$$.
