Cube Root of 100
The cube root of 100 is the value that, when multiplied by itself three times (cubed), gives the original number 100. Do you know? Cube roots apply to our real life also, like that for measuring dimensions, creating digital art, field of engineering, making financial decisions etc.
What Is the Cube Root of 100?
The cube root of 100 is 4.64158883361. The cube root of 100 is expressed as ∛100 in radical form, where the “ ∛ ” sign is called the “radical” sign. In exponential form, it is written as (100)⅓. If “m” is the cube root of 100, then, m3=100. Let us find the value of “m”.
Finding the Cube Root of 100
The cube root of 100 is expressed as ∛100 as its simplest radical form,
since 100 = 2×2×5×5
∛100 = ∛(2×2×5×5)
Group together three same factors at a time and put the remaining factor under the ∛ .
∛100= ∛100
We can find cube root of 100 through a method, named as, Halley’s Method. Let us see how it finds the result.
Cube Root of 100 By Halley’s Method
Now, what is Halley’s Method? It is an iterative method for finding cube roots of a given number N, such that, x3=N,
where this method approximates the value of “x”.
Formula is ∛a≅ x((x3+2a) / (2x3+a)), where
a=given number whose cube root you are going to find
x=integer guess for the cubic root
Let us apply Halley’s method on the given number 100.
Step 1: Let a=100. Let us take x as 4, since, 43=64 is the nearest perfect cube which is less than 100.
Step 2: Apply the formula. ∛100≅ 4((43+2×100) / (2(4)3+100))= 4.63…
Hence, 4.63… is the approximate cubic root of 100.
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in the Cube Root of 100
Here are some common mistakes with their solutions given :
Mistake 1
Students might make errors during factorization. For ∛100, students can make error in the crucial part and may write as ∛100=5 3
Prime Factorization is a crucial part in determining cube roots and square roots. So, use the exact prime factors and group (or pair)
Cube Root of 100 Examples
Problem 1
Find (∛200/ ∛100) × (∛200/ ∛100) × (∛200/ ∛100)
(∛200/ ∛100) × (∛200/ ∛100) × (∛200/ ∛100)
= (∛200× ∛200× ∛200) / (∛100× ∛100× ∛100)
=((200)⅓)3/ ((100)⅓)3
=200/100
=2
Answer: 2
Explanation
We solved and simplified the exponent part first using the fact that, ∛200=(100)⅓ and ∛100=(100)⅓, then solved.
Problem 2
If y = ∛100, find y³/ y⁶
y=∛100
⇒ y3/y6= (∛100)3 / (∛100)6
⇒ y3/y6
= 100/ (100)2
= 1/100
Answer: 1/100
Explanation
(∛100)3=(1001/3)3=100, and ∛100)6=(1001/3)6=(16)2. Using this, we found the value of y3/y6.
Problem 3
Multiply ∛100 × ∛125
∛100×∛125
= 4.641×5
=23.205
Answer: 23.205
Explanation
We know that the cubic root of 125 is 5, hence multiplying ∛125 with ∛100.
Problem 4
What is ∛(100⁶) ?
∛(1006)
= ((100)6))1/3
=( 100)2
= 10000
Answer: 10000
Explanation
We solved and simplified the exponent part first using the fact that, ∛100=(100)⅓, then solved.
Problem 5
Find ∛(100+(-36)).
∛(100-36)
= ∛64
=4
Answer: 4
Explanation
Simplified the expression, and found out the cubic root of the result.
