Cube Root 1 to 50

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Cube root is a special value that, when multiplied three times by itself, gives the original number. Cube roots can help in solving equations, simplifying calculations, and understanding the volumes of cubes. In this topic, we will learn cube roots from 1 to 50 in a simple way with solved examples.

Cube Root 1 to 50

When multiplying a number three times gives the original number, it is known as a cube root. It is the reverse of finding the cube of a number. It is represented by the symbol ∛x, where x is the number. For example, ∛27 is 3 because by multiplying 3 by itself three times we will get the original value (27), 3 × 3 × 3 = 27.

Cube Root 1 to 50 for Perfect Cubes

When an integer is multiplied by itself, three times perfect cube is formed. The cube root of a perfect cube is always an integer. The perfect cubes from 1 to 50 are 1, 8, and 27.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Cube Root 1 to 50 for Non-Perfect Cubes

When we multiply a number three times by itself, and it does not result in integers, it is a non-perfect cube. All the numbers from 1 to 50 except 1, 8, and 27 are non-perfect cubes.

How to Calculate Cube Root 1 to 50

By calculating the cube roots from 1 to 50, we use the following two methods. They are,

  • By Prime Factorization Method
  • By Estimation Method
     
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

By Prime Factorization Method

The prime factorization method breaks down a number into its prime factors and finds the cube root. We can see clearly about this in the following steps.

 

Step 1: The given number is prime factorized

 

Step 2: List the factors and group the same factors in a group of 3

 

Step 3: Remove the cube root and multiply the factors. If a factor is left out that cannot be grouped, that means that is not a perfect cube. 

Let’s check the cube root of 27, 

 

Step 1: Prime factorization of 27 = 3 × 3 × 3

 

Step 2: Grouping the factors ∛(3 × 3 × 3)

 

Step 3: Cube root of 27 = 3 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

By Estimation Method

In the estimation method, the cube root of the number is calculated by estimating the nearby perfect cubes.
Finding the cube root of 18

 

Step 1: We find the nearest perfect cubes 
The nearest perfect cubes of 18 are 8(23) and 27(32)

 

Step 2: Find the nearest number 
Here the nearest cube root is 8, so the cube root of 18 is near to 2.

 

Step 3: Estimate the value by cubing it
Checking the cube root by cubing. 2.13 = 9.261, 2.43 = 13.824, 2.63 = 17.576, 2.73 = 19.683.

 

So, the estimated value of the cube root of 18 is 2.62

Rules for Finding Cube Root from 1 to 50

As we discussed there are different methods to find the cube root of a number. So let’s discuss some of the basic rules to find the cube root from 1 to 50.

 

Rule 1: Exact Cubes
The exact cube is also known as the perfect cube. A perfect cube is a number when cubed gives the number. The exact cubes from 1 to 50 are 1(13), 8(23), 27(33).

 

Rule 2: Approximation for Non-Exact Cubes
In approximation, the cube root is calculated by estimating the nearest perfect cube. For instance, the cube root of 18 in the approximation method can be calculated by estimating the nearest perfect cubes. Here the nearest perfect cubes are 23(8) and 33(27), so the cube root of 18 is 2.62. 

 

Rule 3: Properties of Cube Roots

The cube of a negative number is always negative. That is ∛(-27 )= -3. When multiplying or dividing cube root we can split the numbers into its cube root and so the operations. For instance, ∛(27 × 8) = ∛27  × ∛8 and ∛(64 / 8) = ∛64 / ∛8.

 

Rule 4: Using Cube Root Formula

The formula to find the value of the cube root of a number is x = ∛y so, x = y1/3. Which means finding the value of the cube root of 27 using the formula. Here y = 27, so x = ∛27 = 3. 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Tips and Tricks for Cube Root 1 to 50

Now let’s learn a few tips and tricks for cube root 1 to 50. These tips and tricks can make the learning process easier and more interesting.

  • By memorizing the perfect cubes such as 1, 8, 27, and 64.
     
  • When finding the value of a non-perfect cube students can use the estimation method.
     
  • The cube root follows a pattern that is 
    Unit place of the number Unit place of the cube
    0 0
    2 8
    3 7
    4 4
    5 5
    6 6
    7 3
    8 2
    9 9

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Cube Root 1 to 50

Mistakes are common when students find the value of the cube root of the number. In this section, we will learn some common mistakes which students often repeat.
 

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

 Confusing with cube root and square root
 

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Students confuse that ∛y = √y, which is wrong as one is cube root and the other is square root. So students should understand the concept of both cube root and square root to avoid these errors. 

Mistake 2

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Errors while identifying the nearest perfect cube
 

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

When finding the value of the cube root of the numbers using the estimation method. Students tend to guess the wrong nearest perfect cubes, so to avoid students should double-check the value.
 

Mistake 3

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Confusing with a negative cube

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Students think that the negative cube root doesn't exist. However, the cube root has negative values, that is ∛(-8) -2. 

Mistake 4

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

 Estimating too soon
 

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

When estimating the value of the cube root of a non-perfect cube students round the value too early. This is wrong, so it is important to keep at least 5 decimal places and round the value.

Mistake 5

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Applying the wrong cube root formula 
 

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

When finding the value of the cube root using the formula, students use x1/2 instead of x1/3. So to avoid the error the formula that ∛x = x1/3

Problem 2

The radius and height of a cylinder is 4 cm. Calculate the volume of a cylinder.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The volume of the cylinder is 64π cubic centimeters

Explanation

The volume of the cylinder = πr2h
Here, r = 4 cm
h = 4 cm
Therefore, volume = πr2h = π × 42 × 4 = 64π cubic centimeter

A wooden block set contains 64 tiny cubes. If arranged into a large cube, how many cubes are on each edge?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The number of cubes in each edge is 4
 

Explanation

 As all the sides of the cube are same. To find the number of small cubes in each edge, we find the cube root of 64.
Number of tiny cubes in each edge = ∛64 = 4
