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 317.
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 317 can be written as 317³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 317 × 317 × 317.
To check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: multiplication method, a factor formula (a³), or 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. 317³ = 317 × 317 × 317
Step 2: You get 31,853,113 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 317 is 31,853,113.
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 317 into two parts. Let a = 300 and b = 17, so a + b = 317
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 300³ 3a²b = 3 × 300² × 17 3ab² = 3 × 300 × 17² b³ = 17³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(300 + 17)³ = 300³ + 3 × 300² × 17 + 3 × 300 × 17² + 17³
317³ = 27,000,000 + 4,590,000 + 260,100 + 4,913
317³ = 31,853,113
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 317 is 31,853,113.
To find the cube of 317 using a calculator, input the number 317 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 317 × 317 × 317. This operation calculates the value of 317³, resulting in 31,853,113. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 3 followed by 1 and 7
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 317³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 317 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 31,853,113.
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 317?
The cube of 317 is 31,853,113 and the cube root of 317 is approximately 6.866.
First, let’s find the cube of 317.
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 317³ = 31,853,113
Next, we must find the cube root of 317 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 ∛317 ≈ 6.866
Hence, the cube of 317 is 31,853,113 and the cube root of 317 is approximately 6.866.
If the side length of the cube is 317 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 31,853,113 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 317 for the side length: V = 317³ = 31,853,113 cm³.
How much larger is 317³ than 207³?
317³ – 207³ = 23,800,253.
First, find the cube of 317, which is 31,853,113. Next, find the cube of 207, which is 8,052,860.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
31,853,113 – 8,052,860 = 23,800,253
Therefore, 317³ is 23,800,253 larger than 207³.
If a cube with a side length of 317 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 150 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 317 cm is 31,853,113 cm³ larger.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 317 means multiplying 317 by itself three times: 317 × 317 = 100,489, and then 100,489 × 317 = 31,853,113.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 31,853,113 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 316.5 using the cube of 317.
The cube of 316.5 is approximately 31,853,113.
First, identify the cube of 317, The cube of 317 is 317³ = 31,853,113.
Since 316.5 is only a tiny bit less than 317, the cube of 316.5 will be almost the same as the cube of 317.
The cube of 316.5 is approximately 31,853,113 because the difference between 316.5 and 317 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 31,853,113.
