Cube of 1001

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used while comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about cubes of 1001.

Cube of 1001

A cube number is a value obtained by raising a number to the power of 3, or by multiplying the number by itself three times. When you cube a positive number, the result is always positive. When you cube a negative number, the result is always negative. This is because a negative number by itself three times results in a negative number.

 

The cube of 1001 can be written as 1001³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1001 × 1001 × 1001.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 1001

In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: multiplication method, a factor formula (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help kids to cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.

By Multiplication Method

The multiplication method is a process in mathematics used to find the product of numbers by combining them through repeated addition. It is a fundamental operation that forms the basis for more complex mathematical concepts.

 

Step 1: Write down the cube of the given number. 1001³ = 1001 × 1001 × 1001

 

Step 2: You get 1,003,003,001 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1001 is 1,003,003,001.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Formula (a³)

The formula (a + b)³ is a binomial formula for finding the cube of a number. The formula is expanded as a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³.

 

Step 1: Split the number 1001 into two parts. Let a = 1000 and b = 1, so a + b = 1001

 

Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

 

Step 3: Calculate each term

 

a³ = 1000³

 

3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 1

 

3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 1²

 

b³ = 1³

 

Step 4: Add all the terms together:

 

(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

 

(1000 + 1)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 1 + 3 × 1000 × 1² + 1³

 

1001³ = 1,000,000,000 + 3,000,000 + 3,000 + 1

 

1001³ = 1,003,003,001

 

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1001 is 1,003,003,001.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 1001 using a calculator, input the number 1001 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1001 × 1001 × 1001. This operation calculates the value of 1001³, resulting in 1,003,003,001. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.

 

Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.

 

Step 2: Press 1, 0, 0, and 1

 

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1001³.

 

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1001 three times manually.

 

Step 5: The calculator will display 1,003,003,001.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Calculating the Cube of 1001

There are some typical errors that kids might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that kids might make:

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Incorrect Multiplication

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might multiply the numbers only twice. That is, 1001 × 1001 and not 1001 × 1001 × 1001. Always remember that 1001³ = 1001 × 1001 × 1001.

Mistake 2

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Misunderstanding the Cube Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

There is a possibility that kids might be confused between the formulas of square numbers and cube numbers. The square number formula is (a + b)² and the cube number formula is (a + b)³. Always review the formula for the difference between squaring and cubing.

Mistake 3

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Calculator Misuse

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might press the wrong buttons, such as using the square (x²) function instead of the cube (x³) function or skipping steps in manual multiplication. Always double-check your inputs on the calculator, and if it lacks a cube function, perform the multiplication in steps.

Mistake 4

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Misplacing Zeros

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Misplacing zeros during manual multiplication can lead to incorrect results like 100,300,300 or 1,003,030,010 instead of 1,003,003,001. For this, kids should always double-check their answers.

Mistake 5

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Ignoring the Binomial Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might attempt to split 1001 into 1000 + 1, but not apply the correct binomial expansion. In order to avoid this, carefully calculate each term step-by-step during the application of the formula.

Solved Examples on Cube of 1001

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

What is the cube and cube root of 1001?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The cube of 1001 is 1,003,003,001 and the cube root of 1001 is approximately 10.003.

Explanation

First, let’s find the cube of 1001.

 

We know that the cube of a number, such that x³ = y Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number

 

So, we get 1001³ = 1,003,003,001

 

Next, we must find the cube root of 1001.

 

We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that ∛x = y Where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number

 

So, we get ∛1001 ≈ 10.003

 

Hence the cube of 1001 is 1,003,003,001 and the cube root of 1001 is approximately 10.003.

Problem 2

If the side length of the cube is 1001 cm, what is the volume?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The volume is 1,003,003,001 cm³.

Explanation

Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.

 

Substitute 1001 for the side length: V = 1001³ = 1,003,003,001 cm³.

Problem 3

How much larger is 1001³ than 999³?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1001³ – 999³ = 6,003,003.

Explanation

First, find the cube of 1001, which is 1,003,003,001.

 

Next, find the cube of 999, which is 997,002,999.

 

Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,003,003,001 – 997,002,999 = 6,003,003

 

Therefore, 1001³ is 6,003,003 larger than 999³.

Problem 4

If a cube with a side length of 1001 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 1 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The volume of the cube with a side length of 1001 cm is 1,003,003,001 cm³.

Explanation

To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).

 

Cubing 1001 means multiplying 1001 by itself three times: 1001 × 1001 = 1,002,001, and then 1,002,001 × 1001 = 1,003,003,001.

 

The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.

 

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,003,003,001 cm³.

Problem 5

Estimate the cube 1000.1 using the cube 1001.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The cube of 1000.1 is approximately 1,003,003,001.

Explanation

First, identify the cube of 1001, The cube of 1001 is 1001³ = 1,003,003,001.

 

Since 1000.1 is only a tiny bit less than 1001, the cube of 1000.1 will be almost the same as the cube of 1001.

 

The cube of 1000.1 is approximately 1,003,003,001 because the difference between 1000.1 and 1001 is very small.

 

So, we can approximate the value as 1,003,003,001.
