When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used while comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 643.
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 643 can be written as 643³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 643 × 643 × 643.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods, such as 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 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. 643³ = 643 × 643 × 643
Step 2: You get 265,203,307 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 643 is 265,203,307.
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 643 into two parts, as 600 and 43. Let a = 600 and b = 43, so a + b = 643
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 600³
3a²b = 3 × 600² × 43
3ab² = 3 × 600 × 43²
b³ = 43³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(600 + 43)³ = 600³ + 3 × 600² × 43 + 3 × 600 × 43² + 43³
643³ = 216,000,000 + 46,440,000 + 3,315,600 + 79,507
643³ = 265,203,307
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 643 is 265,203,307.
To find the cube of 643 using a calculator, input the number 643 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 643 × 643 × 643. This operation calculates the value of 643³, resulting in 265,203,307. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 6 followed by 4 and then 3
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 643³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 643 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 265,203,307.
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 643?
The cube of 643 is 265,203,307 and the cube root of 643 is approximately 8.646.
First, let’s find the cube of 643.
We know that the cube of a number is such that x³ = y Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number
So, we get 643³ = 265,203,307
Next, we must find the cube root of 643 We know that 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 of the number
So, we get ∛643 ≈ 8.646
Hence the cube of 643 is 265,203,307 and the cube root of 643 is approximately 8.646.
If the side length of the cube is 643 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 265,203,307 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 643 for the side length: V = 643³ = 265,203,307 cm³.
How much larger is 643³ than 400³?
643³ – 400³ = 257,203,307.
First, find the cube of 643, which is 265,203,307
Next, find the cube of 400, which is 64,000,000
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
265,203,307 – 64,000,000 = 201,203,307
Therefore, 643³ is 201,203,307 larger than 400³.
If a cube with a side length of 643 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 60 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 643 cm is 265,203,307 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 643 means multiplying 643 by itself three times: 643 × 643 = 413,449, and then 413,449 × 643 = 265,203,307.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 265,203,307 cm³.
Estimate the cube 642.5 using the cube 643.
The cube of 642.5 is approximately 265,203,307.
First, identify the cube of 643, The cube of 643 is 643³ = 265,203,307.
Since 642.5 is only a tiny bit less than 643, the cube of 642.5 will be almost the same as the cube of 643.
The cube of 642.5 is approximately 265,203,307 because the difference between 642.5 and 643 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 265,203,307.
