Advance Topics

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 64000 and explain the methods used.

What is the Cube Root of 64000?

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, ∛64000 is written as 64000(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 64000, then y3 can be 64000. Since 64000 is a perfect cube, the cube root of 64000 is exactly 40.

Finding the Cube Root of 64000

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 64000. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:

 

  • Prime factorization method
     
  • Approximation method
     
  • Halley's method

 

Since 64000 is a perfect cube, the prime factorization method is suitable for finding its cube root.

Cube Root of 64000 by Prime Factorization

Let's find the cube root of 64000 using the prime factorization method:

First, express 64000 as a product of its prime factors:

64000 = 27 × 53

To find the cube root, we take the cube root of each prime factor:

∛64000 = ∛(27 × 53) = 2(7/3) × 5(3/3) = 22 × 5 = 4 × 5 = 20

However, correcting the factorization step, it should be:

64000 = (26 × 53), and thus: ∛64000 = 22 × 5 = 40

 

The cube root of 64000 is 40.
