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 74088 and explain the methods used.
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, ∛74088 is written as 74088(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 74088, then y³ can be 74088. Since the cube root of 74088 is an exact value, it can be written as 42.
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 74088. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect cube number, we often use the prime factorization method. Since 74088 is a perfect cube, we use the prime factorization method.
Let's find the cube root of 74088 using the prime factorization method:
First, factorize 74088 into its prime factors: 74088 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 7 × 7
Grouping the factors into triples, we have: (2 × 2 × 2) × (3 × 3 × 3) × (7 × 7 × 7)
Taking one number from each triplet, we get: 2 × 3 × 7 = 42
Thus, the cube root of 74088 is 42.
Imagine you have a cube-shaped toy that has a total volume of 74088 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the toy.
A company manufactures 74088 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 12345 cubic meters.
A bottle holds 74088 cubic meters of volume. Another bottle holds a volume of 8000 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the bottles are combined?
When the cube root of 74088 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
Find ∛(50000 + 24088).
