Cube of 402

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 402 can be written as 402³, which is the exponential form.

Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 402 × 402 × 402.

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 more easily without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers.

• By Multiplication Method
   
• Using a Formula (a³)
   
• 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. 402³ = 402 × 402 × 402

Step 2: You get 65,029,608 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 402 is 65,029,608.

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 402 into two parts, such as (400) and (2). Let (a = 400) and (b = 2), so (a + b = 402)

Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³)

Step 3: Calculate each term (a³ = 400³) (3a²b = 3 × 400² × 2) (3ab² = 3 × 400 × 2²) (b³ = 2³)

Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³) (400 + 2)³ = 400³ + 3 × 400² × 2 + 3 × 400 × 2² + 2³) (402³ = 64,000,000 + 960,000 + 4,800 + 8) (402³ = 65,029,608)

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 402 is 65,029,608.

To find the cube of 402 using a calculator, input the number 402 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 402 × 402 × 402. This operation calculates the value of 402³, resulting in 65,029,608. 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 0 and 2.

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 402³.

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 402 three times manually.

Step 5: The calculator will display 65,029,608.

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.

• 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.

• Perfect Cube: A number that can be expressed as the product of three identical integers, such as 8 = 2³.

• Volume of a Cube: The amount of space occupied by a cube, calculated as the cube of its side length.
