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 1120.
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 1120 can be written as 1120³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1120 × 1120 × 1120.
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 (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help you cube numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.

Using a Calculator
The multiplication method is a process in mathematics used to find the product of 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. 1120³ = 1120 × 1120 × 1120
Step 2: You get 1,404,928,000 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1120 is 1,404,928,000.
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 1120 into two parts. Let a = 1100 and b = 20, so a + b = 1120
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 1100³ 3a²b = 3 × 1100² × 20 3ab² = 3 × 1100 × 20² b³ = 20³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (1100 + 20)³ = 1100³ + 3 × 1100² × 20 + 3 × 1100 × 20² + 20³ 1120³ = 1,331,000,000 + 72,600,000 + 1,320,000 + 8,000 1120³ = 1,404,928,000
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1120 is 1,404,928,000.
To find the cube of 1120 using a calculator, input the number 1120 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1120 × 1120 × 1120. This operation calculates the value of 1120³, resulting in 1,404,928,000. 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 1, 2, and 0
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1120³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1120 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,404,928,000.
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 might occur during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that might occur:
What is the cube and cube root of 1120?
The cube of 1120 is 1,404,928,000 and the cube root of 1120 is approximately 10.582.
First, let’s find the cube of 1120. We know that the cube of a number, such that x³ = y, where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number. So, we get 1120³ = 1,404,928,000
Next, we must find the cube root of 1120. We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that √³x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number. So, we get ∛1120 ≈ 10.582
Hence the cube of 1120 is 1,404,928,000 and the cube root of 1120 is approximately 10.582.
If the side length of the cube is 1120 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,404,928,000 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 1120 for the side length: V = 1120³ = 1,404,928,000 cm³.
How much larger is 1120³ than 1020³?
1120³ – 1020³ = 655,368,000.
First, find the cube of 1120³, which is 1,404,928,000. Next, find the cube of 1020³, which is 749,560,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,404,928,000 – 749,560,000 = 655,368,000
Therefore, 1120³ is 655,368,000 larger than 1020³.
If a cube with a side length of 1120 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 1120 cm is 1,404,928,000 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object). Cubing 1120 means multiplying 1120 by itself three times: 1120 × 1120 = 1,254,400, and then 1,254,400 × 1120 = 1,404,928,000.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube. Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,404,928,000 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1119.9 using the cube of 1120.
The cube of 1119.9 is approximately 1,404,928,000.
First, identify the cube of 1120, The cube of 1120 is 1120³ = 1,404,928,000. Since 1119.9 is only a tiny bit less than 1120, the cube of 1119.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 1120.
The cube of 1119.9 is approximately 1,404,928,000 because the difference between 1119.9 and 1120 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 1,404,928,000.
