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 598.
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 598 can be written as 598³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 598 × 598 × 598.
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 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. 598³ = 598 × 598 × 598
Step 2: You get 213,921,592 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 598 is 213,921,592.
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 598 into two parts, as 500 and 98. Let a = 500 and b = 98, so a + b = 598
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 500³
3a²b = 3 × 500² × 98
3ab² = 3 × 500 × 98²
b³ = 98³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(500 + 98)³ = 500³ + 3 × 500² × 98 + 3 × 500 × 98² + 98³
598³ = 125,000,000 + 73,500,000 + 14,406,000 + 941,192
598³ = 213,921,592
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 598 is 213,921,592.
To find the cube of 598 using a calculator, input the number 598 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 598 × 598 × 598. This operation calculates the value of 598³, resulting in 213,921,592. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Enter 598
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 598³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 598 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 213,921,592.
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 598?
The cube of 598 is 213,921,592, and the cube root of 598 is approximately 8.392.
First, let’s find the cube of 598.
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 598³ = 213,921,592
Next, we must find the cube root of 598. 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 ∛598 ≈ 8.392
Hence the cube of 598 is 213,921,592, and the cube root of 598 is approximately 8.392.
If the side length of a cube is 598 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 213,921,592 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 598 for the side length: V = 598³ = 213,921,592 cm³.
How much larger is 598³ than 500³?
598³ – 500³ = 88,921,592.
First, find the cube of 598, which is 213,921,592.
Next, find the cube of 500, which is 125,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
213,921,592 – 125,000,000 = 88,921,592
Therefore, 598³ is 88,921,592 larger than 500³.
If a cube with a side length of 598 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 598 cm is 213,921,592 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 598 means multiplying 598 by itself three times: 598 × 598 = 357,604, and then 357,604 × 598 = 213,921,592.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 213,921,592 cm³.
Estimate the cube 597.9 using the cube 598.
The cube of 597.9 is approximately 213,921,592.
First, identify the cube of 598.
The cube of 598 is 598³ = 213,921,592.
Since 597.9 is only a tiny bit less than 598, the cube of 597.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 598.
The cube of 597.9 is approximately 213,921,592 because the difference between 597.9 and 598 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 213,921,592.
