When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used when comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 459.
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 459 can be written as 459³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 459 × 459 × 459.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods, such as the 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 two 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.
459³ = 459 × 459 × 459
Step 2: You get 96,146,379 as the answer.
Hence, the cube of 459 is 96,146,379.
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 459 into two parts, as 400 and 59.
Let a = 400 and b = 59, so a + b = 459
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 400³
3a²b = 3 × 400² × 59
3ab² = 3 × 400 × 59²
b³ = 59³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(400 + 59)³ = 400³ + 3 × 400² × 59 + 3 × 400 × 59² + 59³
459³ = 64,000,000 + 28,320,000 + 4,153,200 + 205,379
459³ = 96,146,379
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 459 is 96,146,379.
To find the cube of 459 using a calculator, input the number 459 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 459 × 459 × 459. This operation calculates the value of 459³, resulting in 96,146,379. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 459
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 459³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 459 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 96,146,379.
There are some typical errors that kids might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that kids might make:
What is the cube and cube root of 459?
The cube of 459 is 96,146,379 and the cube root of 459 is approximately 7.741.
First, let’s find the cube of 459.
We know that the cube of a number is x³ = y,
where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number.
So, we get 459³ = 96,146,379. Next, we must find the cube root of 459.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’ is such that ³√x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ³√459 ≈ 7.741.
Hence the cube of 459 is 96,146,379 and the cube root of 459 is approximately 7.741.
If the side length of the cube is 459 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 96,146,379 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 459 for the side length: V = 459³ = 96,146,379 cm³.
How much larger is 459³ than 400³?
459³ – 400³ = 32,146,379.
First find the cube of 459, which is 96,146,379.
Next, find the cube of 400, which is 64,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
96,146,379 – 64,000,000 = 32,146,379.
Therefore, 459³ is 32,146,379 larger than 400³.
If a cube with a side length of 459 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 100 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 459 cm is 96,146,379 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 459 means multiplying 459 by itself three times: 459 × 459 = 210,681, and then 210,681 × 459 = 96,146,379.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 96,146,379 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 458.9 using the cube of 459.
The cube of 458.9 is approximately 96,146,379.
First, identify the cube of 459.
The cube of 459 is 459³ = 96,146,379.
Since 458.9 is only a tiny bit less than 459, the cube of 458.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 459.
The cube of 458.9 is approximately 96,146,379 because the difference between 458.9 and 459 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 96,146,379.
