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 1079.
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 1079 can be written as 1079³, which is the exponential form.
Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1079 × 1079 × 1079.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: the multiplication method, a formula (a³), or by using a calculator.
These three methods will help in cubing numbers faster and easier without confusion while evaluating the answers.
By Multiplication Method Using a Formula Using a Calculator
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. 1079³ = 1079 × 1079 × 1079
Step 2: You get 1,256,224,039 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1079 is 1,256,224,039.
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 1079 into two parts. Let a = 1000 and b = 79, so a + b = 1079
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 1000³ 3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 79 3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 79² b³ = 79³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (1000 + 79)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 79 + 3 × 1000 × 79² + 79³ 1079³ = 1,000,000,000 + 237,000,000 + 18,699,000 + 493,039 1079³ = 1,256,224,039
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1079 is 1,256,224,039.
To find the cube of 1079 using a calculator, input the number 1079 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1079 × 1079 × 1079.
This operation calculates the value of 1079³, resulting in 1,256,224,039.
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 0, 7, 9
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1079³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1079 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,256,224,039.
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 be made:
What is the cube and cube root of 1079?
The cube of 1079 is 1,256,224,039 and the cube root of 1079 is approximately 10.24.
First, let’s find the cube of 1079. 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 1079³ = 1,256,224,039. Next, we must find the cube root of 1079.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that ∛x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and 'y' is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ∛1079 ≈ 10.24. Hence, the cube of 1079 is 1,256,224,039 and the cube root of 1079 is approximately 10.24.
If the side length of a cube is 1079 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,256,224,039 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 1079 for the side length: V = 1079³ = 1,256,224,039 cm³.
How much larger is 1079³ than 1000³?
1079³ – 1000³ = 256,224,039.
First, find the cube of 1079, which is 1,256,224,039.
Next, find the cube of 1000, which is 1,000,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,256,224,039 – 1,000,000,000 = 256,224,039.
Therefore, 1079³ is 256,224,039 larger than 1000³.
If a cube with a side length of 1079 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 1079 cm is 1,256,224,039 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1079 means multiplying 1079 by itself three times: 1079 × 1079 × 1079 = 1,256,224,039.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,256,224,039 cm³.
Estimate the cube 1080 using the cube 1079.
The cube of 1080 is approximately 1,259,712,000.
First, identify the cube of 1079: The cube of 1079 is 1079³ = 1,256,224,039.
Since 1080 is close to 1079, the cube of 1080 will not be significantly larger than the cube of 1079.
The cube of 1080 is approximately 1,259,712,000 based on its proximity to 1079.
