When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used when comparing the sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 4.08.
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 multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 4.08 can be written as 4.08³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 4.08 × 4.08 × 4.08.
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 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 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. 4.08³ = 4.08 × 4.08 × 4.08 Step 2: Multiply to get approximately 67.795392 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 4.08 is approximately 67.795392.
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 4.08 into two parts. Let a = 4 and b = 0.08, so a + b = 4.08
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 4³
3a²b = 3 × 4² × 0.08
3ab² = 3 × 4 × 0.08²
b³ = 0.08³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(4 + 0.08)³ = 4³ + 3 × 4² × 0.08 + 3 × 4 × 0.08² + 0.08³
4.08³ = 64 + 3.84 + 0.0768 + 0.000512 4.08³ ≈ 67.795392
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 4.08 is approximately 67.795392.
To find the cube of 4.08 using a calculator, input the number 4.08 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 4.08 × 4.08 × 4.08. This operation calculates the value of 4.08³, resulting in approximately 67.795392. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 4 followed by .08
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 4.08³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 4.08 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display approximately 67.795392.
