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 1055.
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 multiplying a negative number by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 1055 can be written as 1055³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1055 × 1055 × 1055.
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 students cube the numbers faster and easier without feeling confused or stuck while evaluating the answers. By Multiplication Method Using a Formula Using a Calculator
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. 1055³ = 1055 × 1055 × 1055
Step 2: You get 1,174,430,875 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1055 is 1,174,430,875.
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 1055 into two parts, as 1000 and 55. Let a = 1000 and b = 55, so a + b = 1055
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 1000³ 3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 55 3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 55² b³ = 55³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (1000 + 55)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 55 + 3 × 1000 × 55² + 55³ 1055³ = 1,000,000,000 + 165,000,000 + 9,075,000 + 166,375 1055³ = 1,174,430,875
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1055 is 1,174,430,875.
To find the cube of 1055 using a calculator, input the number 1055 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1055 × 1055 × 1055. This operation calculates the value of 1055³, resulting in 1,174,430,875. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Enter 1055
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1055³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1055 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,174,430,875.
The cube of any even number is always even, while the cube of any odd number is always odd. The product of two or more perfect cube numbers is always a perfect cube. A perfect cube can always be expressed as the product of three identical groups of equal prime factors.
There are some typical errors that students might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that students might make:
What is the cube and cube root of 1055?
The cube of 1055 is 1,174,430,875 and the cube root of 1055 is approximately 10.155.
First, let’s find the cube of 1055. 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 1055³ = 1,174,430,875
Next, we must find the cube root of 1055. We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that ³√x = y Where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number
So, we get ³√1055 ≈ 10.155
Hence the cube of 1055 is 1,174,430,875 and the cube root of 1055 is approximately 10.155.
If the side length of the cube is 1055 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,174,430,875 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 1055 for the side length: V = 1055³ = 1,174,430,875 cm³.
How much larger is 1055³ than 1005³?
1055³ – 1005³ = 160,020,375.
First find the cube of 1055³, which is 1,174,430,875 Next, find the cube of 1005³, which is 1,014,410,500
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,174,430,875 – 1,014,410,500 = 160,020,375
Therefore, 1055³ is 160,020,375 larger than 1005³.
If a cube with a side length of 1055 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 500 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 1055 cm is 1,174,430,875 cm³
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1055 means multiplying 1055 by itself three times: 1055 × 1055 = 1,112,025, and then 1,112,025 × 1055 = 1,174,430,875.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,174,430,875 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1054 using the cube of 1055.
The cube of 1054 is approximately 1,174,430,875.
First, identify the cube of 1055, The cube of 1055 is 1055³ = 1,174,430,875.
Since 1054 is only a tiny bit less than 1055, the cube of 1054 will be almost the same as the cube of 1055.
The cube of 1054 is approximately 1,174,430,875 because the difference between 1054 and 1055 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 1,174,430,875.
