A number we multiply by itself three times to get the original number is its cube root. It has various uses in real life, such as finding the volume of cube-shaped objects and designing structures. We will now find the cube root of 614125 and explain the methods used.
We have learned the definition of the cube root. Now, let’s learn how it is represented using a symbol and exponent. The symbol we use to express the cube root is the radical sign (∛), and the exponent we use is ⅓.
In exponential form, ∛614125 is written as 614125(1/3). The cube root is just the opposite operation of finding the cube of a number. For example: Assume ‘y’ as the cube root of 614125, then y3 can be 614125. Since the cube root of 614125 is an exact value, we can write it as exactly 85.
Finding the cube root of a number is to identify the number that must be multiplied three times resulting in the target number. Now, we will go through the different ways to find the cube root of 614125. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect cube number, we often use the prime factorization method. Since 614125 is a perfect cube, we can use this method.
Let's find the cube root of 614125 using the prime factorization method.
First, we find the prime factors of 614125: 614125 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 7 × 7 × 7.
Grouping the factors into triples, we have (5 × 5 × 5) and (7 × 7 × 7).
The cube root is the product of one factor from each group: ∛614125 = 5 × 7 = 35.
The cube root of 614125 is 85.
Finding the perfect cube of a number without any errors can be a difficult task for the students. This happens for many reasons. Here are a few mistakes the students commonly make and the ways to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped box that has a total volume of 614125 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the box, which is equal to its cube root.
Side of the cube = ∛614125 = 85 units
To find the side of the cube, we need to find the cube root of the given volume.
Therefore, the side length of the cube is exactly 85 units.
A company manufactures 614125 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 125 cubic meters.
The amount of material left is 614000 cubic meters.
To find the remaining material, we need to subtract the used material from the total amount: 614125 - 125 = 614000 cubic meters.
A container holds 614125 cubic liters of liquid. Another container holds a volume of 2000 cubic liters. What would be the total volume if the containers are combined?
The total volume of the combined containers is 616125 cubic liters.
Explanation: Let’s add the volume of both containers: 614125 + 2000 = 616125 cubic liters.
When the cube root of 614125 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
2 × 85 = 170 The cube of 170 = 4913000
When we multiply the cube root of 614125 by 2, it results in a significantly larger volume, as the cube of the new value increases exponentially.
Find ∛(500000 + 114125).
∛(500000 + 114125) = ∛614125 = 85
As shown in the question ∛(500000 + 114125), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 500000 + 114125 = 614125.
Then we use this step: ∛614125 = 85 to get the answer.
