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 the cube of 175.
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 because a negative number multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 175 can be written as 175³, which is the exponential form, or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 175 × 175 × 175.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: the 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.
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. 175³ = 175 × 175 × 175
Step 2: You get 5,359,375 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 175 is 5,359,375.
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 175 into two parts, as 150 and 25. Let a = 150 and b = 25, so a + b = 175
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 150³ 3a²b = 3 × 150² × 25 3ab² = 3 × 150 × 25² b³ = 25³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(150 + 25)³ = 150³ + 3 × 150² × 25 + 3 × 150 × 25² + 25³
175³ = 3,375,000 + 1,687,500 + 281,250 + 15,625
175³ = 5,359,375
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 175 is 5,359,375.
To find the cube of 175 using a calculator, input the number 175 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 175 × 175 × 175. This operation calculates the value of 175³, resulting in 5,359,375. 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 7 and 5
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 175³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 175 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 5,359,375.
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 175?
The cube of 175 is 5,359,375 and the cube root of 175 is approximately 5.584.
First, let’s find the cube of 175.
We know that the 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 175³ = 5,359,375.
Next, we must find the cube root of 175. We know that the cube root of a number x is ∛x = y, where x is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ∛175 ≈ 5.584.
Hence, the cube of 175 is 5,359,375 and the cube root of 175 is approximately 5.584.
If the side length of the cube is 175 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 5,359,375 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 175 for the side length: V = 175³ = 5,359,375 cm³.
How much larger is 175³ than 150³?
175³ – 150³ = 1,984,375.
First, find the cube of 175³, which is 5,359,375.
Next, find the cube of 150³, which is 3,375,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
5,359,375 – 3,375,000 = 1,984,375.
Therefore, 175³ is 1,984,375 larger than 150³.
If a cube with a side length of 175 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 25 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 175 cm is 5,359,375 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 175 means multiplying 175 by itself three times:
175 × 175 = 30,625, and 30,625 × 175 = 5,359,375.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 5,359,375 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 174.9 using the cube of 175.
The cube of 174.9 is approximately 5,359,375.
First, identify the cube of 175.
The cube of 175 is 175³ = 5,359,375.
Since 174.9 is only a tiny bit less than 175, the cube of 174.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 175.
The cube of 174.9 is approximately 5,359,375 because the difference between 174.9 and 175 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 5,359,375.
