A number we multiply by itself three times to get the original number is its cube root. It has various uses in real life, such as finding the volume of cube-shaped objects and designing structures. We will now find the cube root of 110.592 and explain the methods used.
We have learned the definition of the cube root. Now, let’s learn how it is represented using a symbol and exponent. The symbol we use to express the cube root is the radical sign (∛), and the exponent we use is ⅓.
In exponential form, ∛110.592 is written as 110.592^(1/3). The cube root is just the opposite operation of finding the cube of a number. For example: Assume ‘y’ as the cube root of 110.592, then y³ can be 110.592. Since the cube root of 110.592 is an exact value, we can write it as 4.8.
Finding the cube root of a number is to identify the number that must be multiplied three times resulting in the target number. Now, we will go through the different ways to find the cube root of 110.592. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect number, we often use the prime factorization method. Since 110.592 is a perfect cube, we can use this method.
Let's find the cube root of 110.592 using the prime factorization method. First, we find the prime factors of 110.592:
110.592 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
Grouping the prime factors in triples:
(2 × 2 × 2) × (2 × 2 × 2) × (3 × 3 × 3)
Taking one factor from each group: 2 × 2 × 3 = 12
Therefore, the cube root of 110.592 is 12.
Finding the perfect cube of a number without any errors can be a difficult task for students. This happens for many reasons. Here are a few mistakes students commonly make and the ways to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped toy that has a total volume of 110.592 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the box equal to its cube root.
Side of the cube = ∛110.592 = 4.8 units
To find the side of the cube, we need to find the cube root of the given volume.
Therefore, the side length of the cube is 4.8 units.
A company produces 110.592 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 40 cubic meters.
The amount of material left is 70.592 cubic meters.
To find the remaining material, we need to subtract the used material from the total amount: 110.592 - 40 = 70.592 cubic meters.
A tank can hold 110.592 cubic meters of water. Another tank can hold 50 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the tanks are combined?
The total volume of the combined tanks is 160.592 cubic meters.
Explanation: Let’s add the volume of both tanks: 110.592 + 50 = 160.592 cubic meters.
When the cube root of 110.592 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
2 × 4.8 = 9.6 The cube of 9.6 = 884.736
When we multiply the cube root of 110.592 by 2, it results in a significant increase in the volume because the cube increases exponentially.
Find ∛(50 + 60.592).
∛(50 + 60.592) = ∛110.592 = 4.8
As shown in the question ∛(50 + 60.592), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 50 + 60.592 = 110.592.
Then we use this step: ∛110.592 = 4.8 to get the answer.
