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 784.
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 784 can be written as 784³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 784 × 784 × 784.
In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods, such as 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. 784³ = 784 × 784 × 784
Step 2: You get 482,285,184 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 784 is 482,285,184.
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 784 into two parts, as 700 and 84. Let a = 700 and b = 84, so a + b = 784
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³= 700³
3a²b = 3 × 700² × 84
3ab² = 3 × 700 × 84²
b³ = 84³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(700 + 84)³ = 700³ + 3 × 700² × 84 + 3 × 700 × 84² + 84³
784³ = 343,000,000 + 123,480,000 + 14,779,200 + 592,984
784³ = 482,285,184
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 784 is 482,285,184.
To find the cube of 784 using a calculator, input the number 784 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 784 × 784 × 784. This operation calculates the value of 784³, resulting in 482,285,184. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 7, 8, and 4 sequentially.
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 784³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 784 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 482,285,184.
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 784?
The cube of 784 is 482,285,184 and the cube root of 784 is approximately 9.203.
First, let’s find the cube of 784.
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 784³ = 482,285,184
Next, we must find the cube root of 784 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 ∛784 ≈ 9.203
Hence the cube of 784 is 482,285,184 and the cube root of 784 is approximately 9.203.
If the side length of the cube is 784 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 482,285,184 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 784 for the side length: V = 784³ = 482,285,184 cm³.
How much larger is 784³ than 700³?
784³ – 700³ = 139,285,184.
First find the cube of 784³, that is 482,285,184
Next, find the cube of 700³, which is 343,000,000
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.
482,285,184 – 343,000,000 = 139,285,184
Therefore, 784³ is 139,285,184 larger than 700³.
If a cube with a side length of 784 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 84 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 784 cm is 482,285,184 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 784 means multiplying 784 by itself three times: 784 × 784 = 614,656, and then 614,656 × 784 = 482,285,184.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 482,285,184 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 783.9 using the cube of 784.
The cube of 783.9 is approximately 482,285,184.
First, identify the cube of 784, The cube of 784 is 784³ = 482,285,184.
Since 783.9 is only a tiny bit less than 784, the cube of 783.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 784.
The cube of 783.9 is approximately 482,285,184 because the difference between 783.9 and 784 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 482,285,184.
