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 27000 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, ∛27000 is written as 27000(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 27000, then y3 can be 27000. The cube root of 27000 is an exact value which is 30.
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 27000. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect cube number, the prime factorization method is often used. Since 27000 is a perfect cube, we can use this method.
Let's find the cube root of 27000 using the prime factorization method.
Step 1: Find the prime factors of 27000.
27000 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5
Step 2: Group the prime factors in triples.
(2 × 2) × (3 × 3 × 3) × (5 × 5 × 5)
Step 3: Take one factor from each group.
The cube root of 27000 is 3 × 5 × 2 = 30.
The cube root of 27000 is 30.
Imagine you have a cube-shaped toy that has a total volume of 27000 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the box equal to its cube root.
A company manufactures 27000 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 7000 cubic meters.
A bottle holds 27000 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 27000 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
Find ∛(23000 + 4000).
