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 cubes of 663.
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 663 can be written as 663³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 663 × 663 × 663.
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. 663³ = 663 × 663 × 663
Step 2: You get 291,420,087 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 663 is 291,420,087.
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 663 into two parts, as 600 and 63. Let a = 600 and b = 63, so a + b = 663
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³= 600³ 3a²b = 3 × 600² × 63 3ab² = 3 × 600 × 63² b³ = 63³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(600 + 63)³ = 600³ + 3 × 600² × 63 + 3 × 600 × 63² + 63³
663³ = 216,000,000 + 68,040,000 + 7,155,600 + 250,047
663³ = 291,420,087
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 663 is 291,420,087.
To find the cube of 663 using a calculator, input the number 663 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 663 × 663 × 663. This operation calculates the value of 663³, resulting in 291,420,087. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Enter 6 followed by 6 and 3
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 663³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 663 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 291,420,087.
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 663?
The cube of 663 is 291,420,087, and the cube root of 663 is approximately 8.749.
First, let’s find the cube of 663.
We know that the 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 663³ = 291,420,087.
Next, we must find the cube root of 663.
We know that the 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 ∛663 ≈ 8.749.
Hence, the cube of 663 is 291,420,087, and the cube root of 663 is approximately 8.749.
If the side length of the cube is 663 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 291,420,087 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V= Side³.
Substitute 663 for the side length: V = 663³ = 291,420,087 cm³.
How much larger is 663³ than 600³?
663³ – 600³ = 75,420,087.
First, find the cube of 663³, that is 291,420,087.
Next, find the cube of 600³, which is 216,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
291,420,087 – 216,000,000 = 75,420,087.
Therefore, 663³ is 75,420,087 larger than 600³.
If a cube with a side length of 663 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 63 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 663 cm is 291,420,087 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 663 means multiplying 663 by itself three times: 663 × 663 = 439,569, and then 439,569 × 663 = 291,420,087.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 291,420,087 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 662.9 using the cube of 663.
The cube of 662.9 is approximately 291,420,087.
First, identify the cube of 663.
The cube of 663 is 663³ = 291,420,087.
Since 662.9 is only a tiny bit less than 663, the cube of 662.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 663.
The cube of 662.9 is approximately 291,420,087 because the difference between 662.9 and 663 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 291,420,087.
