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 636056 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, ∛636056 is written as 636056(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 636056, then y3 can be 636056. Since the cube root of 636056 is an exact value, it is 86.
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 636056. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect cube number like 636056, the prime factorization method is often used.
Let's find the cube root of 636056 using the prime factorization method.
First, determine the prime factors of 636056:
636056 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 107 × 107 × 107
Next, group the factors into triples: (2 × 2 × 2) and (107 × 107 × 107)
Now, take one factor from each group: 2 × 107 = 214
Thus, the cube root of 636056 is 86.
Finding the perfect cube of a number without any errors can be a difficult task for students. This happens for many reasons. Here are a few mistakes students commonly make and the ways to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped box that has a total volume of 636056 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the box equal to its cube root.
Side of the cube = ∛636056 = 86 units
To find the side of the cube, we need to find the cube root of the given volume.
Therefore, the side length of the cube is exactly 86 units.
A warehouse stores cubes with a total volume of 636056 cubic meters. Calculate the amount of volume left after using 100000 cubic meters.
The amount of volume left is 536056 cubic meters.
To find the remaining volume, we need to subtract the used volume from the total amount:
636056 - 100000 = 536056 cubic meters.
A container holds 636056 cubic meters of material. Another container holds a volume of 50000 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the containers are combined?
The total volume of the combined containers is 686056 cubic meters.
Let’s add the volume of both containers:
636056 + 50000 = 686056 cubic meters.
When the cube root of 636056 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
2 × 86 = 172 The cube of 172 = 5088448
When we multiply the cube root of 636056 by 2, it results in a significant increase in the volume because the cube increases exponentially.
Find ∛(100000 + 536056).
∛(100000 + 536056) = ∛636056 = 86
As shown in the question ∛(100000 + 536056), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 100000 + 536056 = 636056.
Then we use this step: ∛636056 = 86 to get the answer.
