When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used when comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about cubes of 1027.
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 1027 can be written as 1027³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1027 × 1027 × 1027.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods, such as the multiplication method, a factor formula (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help you cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.
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. 1027³ = 1027 × 1027 × 1027
Step 2: Calculate the product to get 1,083,908,683 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1027 is 1,083,908,683.
The binomial formula (a + b)³ is a method for finding the cube of a number. The formula is expanded as a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³.
Step 1: Split the number 1027 into two parts. Let a = 1000 and b = 27, so a + b = 1027
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 1000³
3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 27
3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 27²
b³ = 27³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(1000 + 27)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 27 + 3 × 1000 × 27² + 27³
1027³ = 1,000,000,000 + 81,000,000 + 2,187,000 + 19,683
1027³ = 1,083,908,683
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1027 is 1,083,908,683.
To find the cube of 1027 using a calculator, input the number 1027 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1027 × 1027 × 1027. This operation calculates the value of 1027³, resulting in 1,083,908,683. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Input 1 followed by 0, 2, and 7.
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1027³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1027 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,083,908,683.
There are some typical errors that might be made during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that might occur:
What is the cube and cube root of 1027?
The cube of 1027 is 1,083,908,683, and the cube root of 1027 is approximately 10.078.
First, let’s find the cube of 1027.
We know that cube of a number is x³ = y Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number.
So, we get 1027³ = 1,083,908,683.
Next, we must find the cube root of 1027.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’ is such that ∛x = y Where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ∛1027 ≈ 10.078
Hence, the cube of 1027 is 1,083,908,683, and the cube root of 1027 is approximately 10.078.
If the side length of the cube is 1027 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,083,908,683 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 1027 for the side length: V = 1027³ = 1,083,908,683 cm³.
How much larger is 1027³ than 1000³?
1027³ – 1000³ = 83,908,683.
First, find the cube of 1027, which is 1,083,908,683.
Next, find the cube of 1000, which is 1,000,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,083,908,683 – 1,000,000,000 = 83,908,683.
Therefore, 1027³ is 83,908,683 larger than 1000³.
If a cube with a side length of 1027 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 10 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 1027 cm is 1,083,908,683 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1027 means multiplying 1027 by itself three times: 1027 × 1027 = 1,054,729, and then 1,054,729 × 1027 = 1,083,908,683.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,083,908,683 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1026.5 using the cube of 1027.
The cube of 1026.5 is approximately 1,083,908,683.
First, identify the cube of 1027.
The cube of 1027 is 1027³ = 1,083,908,683.
Since 1026.5 is only a tiny bit less than 1027, the cube of 1026.5 will be almost the same as the cube of 1027.
The cube of 1026.5 is approximately 1,083,908,683 because the difference between 1026.5 and 1027 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 1,083,908,683.
