Cube of 105

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 105 can be written as 105³, which is the exponential form.

 

Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 105 × 105 × 105.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 105

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.

 

  • By Multiplication Method
     
  • Using a Formula (a3)
     
  • Using a Calculator

By Multiplication Method

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. 105³ = 105 × 105 × 105

 

Step 2: You get 1,157,625 as the answer.

 

Hence, the cube of 105 is 1,157,625.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Formula (a³)

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 105 into two parts, as and . Let a = 100 and b = 5, so a + b = 105

 

Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

 

Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 100³ 3a²b = 3 × 100² × 5 3ab² = 3 × 100 × 5² b³ = 5³

 

Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (100 + 5)³ = 100³ + 3 × 100² × 5 + 3 × 100 × 5² + 5³ 105³ = 1,000,000 + 150,000 + 7,500 + 125 105³ = 1,157,625

 

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 105 is 1,157,625.

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 105 using a calculator, input the number 105 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 105 × 105 × 105. This operation calculates the value of 105³, resulting in 1,157,625. 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 0 and 5

 

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 105³.

 

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 105 three times manually.

 

Step 5: The calculator will display 1,157,625.

Problem 1

What is the cube and cube root of 105?

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

The cube of 105 is 1,157,625 and the cube root of 105 is approximately 4.717.

Explanation

First, let’s find the cube of 105.

We know that cube of a number, such that x³ = y

Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number

So, we get 105³ = 1,157,625 Next, we must find the cube root of 105

We know that cube root of a number ‘x’, such that ∛x = y

Where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number

So, we get ∛105 ≈ 4.717

Hence the cube of 105 is 1,157,625 and the cube root of 105 is approximately 4.717.

Problem 2

If the side length of the cube is 105 cm, what is the volume?

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

The volume is 1,157,625 cm³.

Explanation

Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.

Substitute 105 for the side length: V = 105³ = 1,157,625 cm³.

Problem 3

How much larger is 105³ than 95³?

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

105³ – 95³ = 465,125.

Explanation

First find the cube of 105, that is 1,157,625

Next, find the cube of 95, which is 692,500

Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,157,625 – 692,500 = 465,125

Therefore, the 105³ is 465,125 larger than 95³.

Problem 4

If a cube with a side length of 105 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 15 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?

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

The volume of the cube with a side length of 105 cm is 1,157,625 cm³.

Explanation

To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).

Cubing 105 means multiplying 105 by itself three times: 105 × 105 = 11,025, and then 11,025 × 105 = 1,157,625.

The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,157,625 cm³.

Problem 5

Estimate the cube 104.9 using the cube 105.

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

The cube of 104.9 is approximately 1,157,625.

Explanation

First, identify the cube of 105, The cube of 105 is 105³ = 1,157,625.

Since 104.9 is only a tiny bit less than 105, the cube of 104.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 105.

The cube of 104.9 is approximately 1,157,625 because the difference between 104.9 and 105 is very small.

So, we can approximate the value as 1,157,625.
