When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used in comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 712.
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 712 can be written as 712³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 712 × 712 × 712.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: the 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. 712³ = 712 × 712 × 712
Step 2: You get 360,768,128 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 712 is 360,768,128.
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 712 into two parts. Let a = 700 and b = 12, so a + b = 712
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 700³
3a²b = 3 × 700² × 12
3ab² = 3 × 700 × 12²
b³ = 12³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(700 + 12)³ = 700³ + 3 × 700² × 12 + 3 × 700 × 12² + 12³
712³ = 343,000,000 + 176,400 + 302,400 + 1,728
712³ = 360,768,128
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 712 is 360,768,128.
To find the cube of 712 using a calculator, input the number 712 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 712 × 712 × 712. This operation calculates the value of 712³, resulting in 360,768,128. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Input 7, 1, 2 in sequence.
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 712³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 712 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 360,768,128.
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 712?
The cube of 712 is 360,768,128 and the cube root of 712 is approximately 8.944.
First, let’s find the cube of 712.
We know that the cube of a number is given by x³ = y, where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number
So, we get 712³ = 360,768,128.
Next, we must find the cube root of 712.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’ is given by ∛x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ∛712 ≈ 8.944
. Hence, the cube of 712 is 360,768,128 and the cube root of 712 is approximately 8.944.
If the side length of the cube is 712 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 360,768,128 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 712 for the side length: V = 712³ = 360,768,128 cm³.
How much larger is 712³ than 512³?
712³ – 512³ = 254,803,128.
First, find the cube of 712, which is 360,768,128.
Next, find the cube of 512, which is 134,965,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 360,768,128 – 134,965,000 = 225,803,128.
Therefore, 712³ is 225,803,128 larger than 512³.
If a cube with a side length of 712 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 100 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 712 cm is 360,768,128 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 712 means multiplying 712 by itself three times: 712 × 712 = 506,944, and then 506,944 × 712 = 360,768,128.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 360,768,128 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 711.5 using the cube of 712.
The cube of 711.5 is approximately 360,768,128.
First, identify the cube of 712, The cube of 712 is 712³ = 360,768,128.
Since 711.5 is only a tiny bit less than 712, the cube of 711.5 will be almost the same as the cube of 712.
The cube of 711.5 is approximately 360,768,128 because the difference between 711.5 and 712 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 360,768,128.
