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 1125.
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 by itself three times results in a negative number. The cube of 1125 can be written as 1125³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1125 × 1125 × 1125.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: multiplication method, factor formula (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help learners cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck 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. 1125³ = 1125 × 1125 × 1125
Step 2: Calculate the product to get the answer. The cube of 1125 is 1,425,781,250.
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 1125 into two parts. Let a = 1100 and b = 25, so a + b = 1125
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³= 1100³ 3a²b = 3 × 1100² × 25 3ab² = 3 × 1100 × 25² b³ = 25³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (1100 + 25)³ = 1100³ + 3 × 1100² × 25 + 3 × 1100 × 25² + 25³ 1125³ = 1,331,000,000 + 90,750,000 + 2,062,500 + 15,625
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1125 is 1,425,781,250.
To find the cube of 1125 using a calculator, input the number 1125 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1125 × 1125 × 1125. This operation calculates the value of 1125³, resulting in 1,425,781,250. 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 125
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1125³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1125 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,425,781,250.
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 learners might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that learners might make:
What is the cube and cube root of 1125?
The cube of 1125 is 1,425,781,250 and the cube root of 1125 is approximately 10.485.
First, let’s find the cube of 1125. We know that the cube of a number is obtained by multiplying the number by itself three times. So, we get 1125³ = 1,425,781,250
Next, we find the cube root of 1125. The cube root of a number 'x' is such that √x = y, where 'x' is the given number and 'y' is the cube root value. So, we get √1125 ≈ 10.485
Hence, the cube of 1125 is 1,425,781,250 and the cube root of 1125 is approximately 10.485.
If the side length of a cube is 1125 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,425,781,250 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 1125 for the side length: V = 1125³ = 1,425,781,250 cm³.
How much larger is 1125³ than 1000³?
1125³ – 1000³ = 425,781,250.
First, find the cube of 1125, which is 1,425,781,250. Next, find the cube of 1000, which is 1,000,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,425,781,250 – 1,000,000,000 = 425,781,250
Therefore, 1125³ is 425,781,250 larger than 1000³.
If a cube with a side length of 1125 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 225 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 1125 cm is 1,425,781,250 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1125 means multiplying 1125 by itself three times: 1125 × 1125 = 1,265,625, and then 1,265,625 × 1125 = 1,425,781,250. The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,425,781,250 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1124 using the cube of 1125.
The cube of 1124 is approximately 1,423,621,824.
First, identify the cube of 1125, The cube of 1125 is 1125³ = 1,425,781,250. Since 1124 is only a tiny bit less than 1125, the cube of 1124 will be almost the same as the cube of 1125.
Use the approximation to find the cube of 1124 as 1,423,621,824 using similar calculations. Therefore, the cube of 1124 is approximately 1,423,621,824.
