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 920.
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 920 can be written as \(920^3\), which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as \(920 \times 920 \times 920\).
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 \((a^3)\), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help kids to cube 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. \[920^3 = 920 \times 920 \times 920\] Step 2: You get \(778,688,000\) as the answer. Hence, the cube of 920 is \(778,688,000\).
The formula \((a + b)^3\) is a binomial formula for finding the cube of a number. The formula is expanded as \(a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3\). Step 1: Split the number 920 into two parts, as and . Let \(a = 900\) and \(b = 20\), so \(a + b = 920\) Step 2: Now, apply the formula \((a + b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3\) Step 3: Calculate each term \(a^3 = 900^3\) \(3a^2b = 3 \times 900^2 \times 20\) \(3ab^2 = 3 \times 900 \times 20^2\) \(b^3 = 20^3\) Step 4: Add all the terms together: \((a + b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3\) \((900 + 20)^3 = 900^3 + 3 \times 900^2 \times 20 + 3 \times 900 \times 20^2 + 20^3\) \(920^3 = 729,000,000 + 486,000,000 + 108,000 + 8,000\) \(920^3 = 778,688,000\) Step 5: Hence, the cube of 920 is \(778,688,000\).
To find the cube of 920 using a calculator, input the number 920 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply \(920 \times 920 \times 920\). This operation calculates the value of \(920^3\), resulting in \(778,688,000\). It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation. Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly. Step 2: Enter 920 Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate \(920^3\). Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 920 three times manually. Step 5: The calculator will display \(778,688,000\).
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 920?
The cube of 920 is \(778,688,000\) and the cube root of 920 is approximately 9.729.
First, let’s find the cube of 920. We know that the cube of a number, such that \(x^3 = y\) Where \(x\) is the given number, and \(y\) is the cubed value of that number So, we get \(920^3 = 778,688,000\) Next, we must find the cube root of 920 We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that \(\sqrt[3]{x} = y\) Where ‘x’ is the given number, and \(y\) is the cube root value of the number So, we get \(\sqrt[3]{920} \approx 9.729\) Hence, the cube of 920 is \(778,688,000\) and the cube root of 920 is approximately 9.729.
If the side length of a cube is 920 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is \(778,688,000\) cm\(^3\).
Use the volume formula for a cube \(V = \text{Side}^3\). Substitute 920 for the side length: \(V = 920^3 = 778,688,000\) cm\(^3\).
How much larger is \(920^3\) than \(820^3\)?
\(920^3 - 820^3 = 476,328,000\).
First, find the cube of 920, which is \(778,688,000\). Next, find the cube of 820, which is \(302,360,000\). Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. \(778,688,000 - 302,360,000 = 476,328,000\) Therefore, \(920^3\) is \(476,328,000\) larger than \(820^3\).
If a cube with a side length of 920 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 120 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 920 cm is \(778,688,000\) cm\(^3\).
To find its volume, multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object). Cubing 920 means multiplying 920 by itself three times: \(920 \times 920 = 846,400\), and then \(846,400 \times 920 = 778,688,000\). The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm\(^3\)) because we are calculating the space inside the cube. Therefore, the volume of the cube is \(778,688,000\) cm\(^3\).
Estimate the cube 919.9 using the cube 920.
The cube of 919.9 is approximately \(778,688,000\).
First, identify the cube of 920, The cube of 920 is \(920^3 = 778,688,000\). Since 919.9 is only a tiny bit less than 920, the cube of 919.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 920. The cube of 919.9 is approximately \(778,688,000\) because the difference between 919.9 and 920 is very small. So, we can approximate the value as \(778,688,000\).
- Binomial Formula: An algebraic expression used to expand the powers of a number, written as \((a + b)^n\), where ‘n’ is a positive integer raised to the base. The formula is used to find the square and cube of a number. - Cube of a Number: Multiplying a number by itself three times is called the cube of a number. - Exponential Form: A way of expressing numbers using a base and an exponent (or power), where the exponent value indicates how many times the base is multiplied by itself. For example, \(2^3\) represents \(2 \times 2 \times 2\) equals 8. - Perfect Cube: A number that can be expressed as the cube of an integer. - Volume of a Cube: The amount of space inside a cube, calculated as the cube of the side length.
