Cube of 1438

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used while comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about cubes of 1438.

Cube of 1438

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 by itself three times results in a negative number.

The cube of 1438 can be written as 14383, which is the exponential form.

Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1438 × 1438 × 1438.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 1438

In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods, such as 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.

By Multiplication Method

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. 14383 = 1438 × 1438 × 1438

Step 2: You get 2,972,344,072 as the answer.

Hence, the cube of 1438 is 2,972,344,072.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Formula (\(a^3\))

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 1438 into two parts, as 1400 and 38.

Let a = 1400 and b = 38, so a + b = 1438.

Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3.

Step 3: Calculate each term. a3 = 14003

3a2b = 3 × 14002 × 38

3ab2 = 3 × 1400 × 382

b3 = 383

Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3

 (1400 + 38)3 = 14003 + 3 × 14002 × 38 + 3 × 1400 × 382 + 383 

14383 = 2,744,000,000 + 224,280,000 + 60,648,000 + 54,072

14383 = 2,972,344,072

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1438 is 2,972,344,072.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 1438 using a calculator, input the number 1438 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1438 × 1438 × 1438. This operation calculates the value of 14383, resulting in 2,972,344,072. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.

 

Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.

Step 2: Press 1, 4, 3, and 8.

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 14383.

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1438 three times manually.

Step 5: The calculator will display 2,972,344,072.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Calculating the Cube of 1438

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:

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Incorrect Multiplication

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might multiply the numbers only twice. That is, 1438 × 1438 and not 1438 × 1438 × 1438. Always remember that 14383 = 1438 × 1438 × 1438.

Mistake 2

Misunderstanding the Cube Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

There is a possibility that kids might be confused between the formulas of square numbers and cube numbers. The square number formula is (a + b)2 and the cube number formula is (a + b)3. Always review the formula for the difference between squaring and cubing.

Mistake 3

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Calculator Misuse

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might press the wrong buttons, such as using the square x2 function instead of the cube x3 function or skipping steps in manual multiplication. Always double-check your inputs on the calculator, and if it lacks a cube function, perform the multiplication in steps.

Mistake 4

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Misplacing Zeros

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Misplacing zeros during manual multiplication leads to incorrect results like 2,972,344,072 instead of 2,972,344,072. For this, kids should always double-check their answers.

Mistake 5

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Ignoring the Binomial Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Kids might attempt to split the 1438 into 1400 + 38 but not apply the correct binomial expansion. In order to avoid this, carefully calculate each term step-by-step during the application of the formula.

Problem 1

What is the cube and cube root of 1438?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"
Okay, lets begin

The cube of 1438 is 2,972,344,072 and the cube root of 1438 is approximately 11.177.

Explanation

First, let’s find the cube of 1438.

We know that 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 14383 = 2,972,344,072.

Next, we must find the cube root of 1438.

We know that 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 ∛1438 ≈11.177.

Hence the cube of 1438 is 2,972,344,072 and the cube root of 1438 is approximately 11.177.

Problem 3

How much larger is \(1438^3\) than \(1000^3\)?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"
Okay, lets begin

14383 - 10003 = 2,972,344,072 - 1,000,000,000 = 1,972,344,072.

Explanation

First, find the cube of 14383, which is 2,972,344,072.

Next, find the cube of 10003, which is 1,000,000,000.

Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method.

2,972,344,072 - 1,000,000,000 = 1,972,344,072.

Therefore, 14383 is 1,972,344,072 larger than 10003.

Problem 4

If a cube with a side length of 1438 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 100 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"
Okay, lets begin

The volume of the cube with a side length of 1438 cm is 2,972,344,072 cm³.

Explanation

To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).

Cubing 1438 means multiplying 1438 by itself three times.

The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 2,972,344,072 cm³.

Problem 5

Estimate the cube of 1437 using the cube of 1438.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"
Okay, lets begin

The cube of 1437 is approximately 2,972,344,072.

Explanation

First, identify the cube of 1438.

The cube of 1438 is 14383 = 2,972,344,072.

Since 1437 is only a tiny bit less than 1438, the cube of 1437 will be almost the same as the cube of 1438.

The cube of 1437 is approximately 2,972,344,072 because the difference between 1437 and 1438 is very small.

So, we can approximate the value as 2,972,344,072.
