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 1085.
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 multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 1085 can be written as 1085³, which is the exponential form.
Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 1085 × 1085 × 1085.
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 kids cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.
By Multiplication Method Using a Formula Using a Calculator
The multiplication method is a process in mathematics used to find the product of two numbers or quantities 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. 1085³ = 1085 × 1085 × 1085
Step 2: You get 1,276,816,125 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1085 is 1,276,816,125.
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 1085 into two parts, as 1000 and 85. Let a = 1000 and b = 85, so a + b = 1085
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 1000³ 3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 85 3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 85² b³ = 85³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (1000 + 85)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 85 + 3 × 1000 × 85² + 85³ 1085³ = 1,000,000,000 + 255,000,000 + 21,675,000 + 614,125 1085³ = 1,276,816,125
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1085 is 1,276,816,125.
To find the cube of 1085 using a calculator, input the number 1085 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1085 × 1085 × 1085.
This operation calculates the value of 1085³, resulting in 1,276,816,125. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 1 followed by 0, 8, and 5
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1085³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1085 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,276,816,125.
The cube of any even number is always even, while the cube of any odd number is always odd.
The product of two or more perfect cube numbers is always a perfect cube.
A perfect cube can always be expressed as the product of three identical groups of equal prime factors.
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:
What is the cube and cube root of 1085?
The cube of 1085 is 1,276,816,125 and the cube root of 1085 is approximately 10.198.
First, let’s find the cube of 1085.
We know that the cube of a number is such that x³ = y, where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number. So, we get 1085³ = 1,276,816,125.
Next, we must find the cube root of 1085.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’ is such that ³√x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ³√1085 ≈ 10.198. Hence, the cube of 1085 is 1,276,816,125 and the cube root of 1085 is approximately 10.198.
If the side length of the cube is 1085 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,276,816,125 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 1085 for the side length: V = 1085³ = 1,276,816,125 cm³.
How much larger is 1085³ than 1000³?
1085³ – 1000³ = 276,816,125.
First find the cube of 1085, which is 1,276,816,125.
Next, find the cube of 1000, which is 1,000,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,276,816,125 – 1,000,000,000 = 276,816,125.
Therefore, 1085³ is 276,816,125 larger than 1000³.
If a cube with a side length of 1085 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 85 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 1085 cm is 1,276,816,125 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1085 means multiplying 1085 by itself three times: 1085 × 1085 = 1,177,225, and then 1,177,225 × 1085 = 1,276,816,125.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,276,816,125 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1084 using the cube of 1085.
The cube of 1084 is approximately 1,276,816,125.
First, identify the cube of 1085, The cube of 1085 is 1085³ = 1,276,816,125.
Since 1084 is only a tiny bit less than 1085, the cube of 1084 will be almost the same as the cube of 1085.
The cube of 1084 is approximately 1,276,816,125 because the difference between 1084 and 1085 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 1,276,816,125.
