Cube of 359

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

When a number is multiplied by itself three times, 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 cubes of 359.

Cube of 359

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 359 can be written as 359³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 359 × 359 × 359.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 359

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 students 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 numbers 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. 359³ = 359 × 359 × 359 Step 2: You get 46,305,679 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 359 is 46,305,679.

Using a Formula (a³)

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 359 into two parts. Let a = 350 and b = 9, so a + b = 359 Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 350³ 3a²b = 3 × 350² × 9 3ab² = 3 × 350 × 9² b³ = 9³ Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (350 + 9)³ = 350³ + 3 × 350² × 9 + 3 × 350 × 9² + 9³ 359³ = 42,875,000 + 3,307,500 + 85,050 + 729 359³ = 46,305,679 Step 5: Hence, the cube of 359 is 46,305,679.

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 359 using a calculator, input the number 359 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 359 × 359 × 359. This operation calculates the value of 359³, resulting in 46,305,679. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation. Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly. Step 2: Press 3, 5, and 9 Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 359³. Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 359 three times manually. Step 5: The calculator will display 46,305,679.

Tips and Tricks for the Cube of 359

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.

Problem 1

What is the cube and cube root of 359?

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

The cube of 359 is 46,305,679 and the cube root of 359 is approximately 7.097.

Explanation

First, let’s find the cube of 359. We know that the cube of a number x, such that x³ = y Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number. So, we get 359³ = 46,305,679 Next, we must find the cube root of 359. 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√359 ≈ 7.097 Hence, the cube of 359 is 46,305,679 and the cube root of 359 is approximately 7.097.

Problem 2

If the side length of the cube is 359 cm, what is the volume?

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

The volume is 46,305,679 cm³.

Explanation

Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³. Substitute 359 for the side length: V = 359³ = 46,305,679 cm³.

Problem 3

How much larger is 359³ than 350³?

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

359³ – 350³ = 3,430,679.

Explanation

First, find the cube of 359³, which is 46,305,679. Next, find the cube of 350³, which is 42,875,000. Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 46,305,679 – 42,875,000 = 3,430,679. Therefore, 359³ is 3,430,679 larger than 350³.

Problem 4

If a cube with a side length of 359 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 9 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?

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

The volume of the cube with a side length of 359 cm is 46,305,679 cm³.

Explanation

To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object). Cubing 359 means multiplying 359 by itself three times: 359 × 359 = 128,881, and then 128,881 × 359 = 46,305,679. The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube. Therefore, the volume of the cube is 46,305,679 cm³.

Problem 5

Estimate the cube of 358.9 using the cube of 359.

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

The cube of 358.9 is approximately 46,305,679.

Explanation

First, identify the cube of 359. The cube of 359 is 359³ = 46,305,679. Since 358.9 is only a tiny bit less than 359, the cube of 358.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 359. The cube of 358.9 is approximately 46,305,679 because the difference between 358.9 and 359 is very small. So, we can approximate the value as 46,305,679.
