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 283.
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 multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 283 can be written as 283³, which is the exponential form.
Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 283 × 283 × 283.
In order 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 by using a calculator. These three methods will help kids to cube 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 numbers 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. 283³ = 283 × 283 × 283
Step 2: You get 22,654,387 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 283 is 22,654,387.
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 283 into two parts. Let a = 280 and b = 3, so a + b = 283
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 280³ 3a²b = 3 × 280² × 3 3ab² = 3 × 280 × 3² b³ = 3³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (280 + 3)³ = 280³ + 3 × 280² × 3 + 3 × 280 × 3² + 3³ 283³ = 21,952,000 + 705,600 + 7,560 + 27 283³ = 22,654,387
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 283 is 22,654,387.
To find the cube of 283 using a calculator, input the number 283 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 283 × 283 × 283. This operation calculates the value of 283³, resulting in 22,654,387. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 2 followed by 8 and 3
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 283³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 283 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 22,654,387.
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 283?
The cube of 283 is 22,654,387 and the cube root of 283 is approximately 6.623.
First, let’s find the cube of 283.
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 283³ = 22,654,387.
Next, we must find the cube root of 283.
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 ∛283 ≈ 6.623.
Hence the cube of 283 is 22,654,387 and the cube root of 283 is approximately 6.623.
If the side length of the cube is 283 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 22,654,387 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 283 for the side length: V = 283³ = 22,654,387 cm³.
How much larger is 283³ than 280³?
283³ – 280³ = 702,387.
First find the cube of 283, that is 22,654,387.
Next, find the cube of 280, which is 21,952,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 22,654,387 – 21,952,000 = 702,387.
Therefore, the 283³ is 702,387 larger than 280³.
If a cube with a side length of 283 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 3 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 283 cm is 22,654,387 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 283 means multiplying 283 by itself three times: 283 × 283 = 80,089, and then 80,089 × 283 = 22,654,387.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 22,654,387 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 282.9 using the cube of 283.
The cube of 282.9 is approximately 22,654,387.
First, identify the cube of 283, The cube of 283 is 283³ = 22,654,387.
Since 282.9 is only a tiny bit less than 283, the cube of 282.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 283.
The cube of 282.9 is approximately 22,654,387 because the difference between 282.9 and 283 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 22,654,387.
