A number we multiply by itself three times to get the original number is its cube root. Understanding cube roots is essential in calculating volumes of cube-shaped objects and designing structures. We will now find the cube root of 210125 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, ∛210125 is written as 210125(1/3). The cube root is the opposite operation of finding the cube of a number. For example: Assume ‘y’ as the cube root of 210125, then y3 can be 210125. The cube root of 210125 is an exact whole number, which is 59.
Finding the cube root of a number is identifying the number that must be multiplied three times to result in the target number. Now, we will go through the different ways to find the cube root of 210125. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
Since 210125 is a perfect cube, we can use the prime factorization method to find its cube root.
Let's find the cube root of 210125 using the prime factorization method.
First, factorize 210125 into its prime factors: 210125 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 7 × 7 × 7
Group the prime factors in triples: (5 × 5 × 5) and (7 × 7 × 7)
The cube root is the product of one factor from each group: ∛210125 = 5 × 7 = 35
The cube root of 210125 is 35.
Finding the cube root of a number without errors can be challenging for students. Here are a few mistakes students commonly make and how to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped box that has a total volume of 210125 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the box equal to its cube root.
Side of the cube = ∛210125 = 59 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 exactly 59 units.
A company produces 210125 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material used if 1000 cubic meters remain.
The amount of material used is 209125 cubic meters.
To find the used material, we need to subtract the remaining material from the total amount:
210125 - 1000 = 209125 cubic meters.
A container holds 210125 cubic meters of volume. Another container holds a volume of 125 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the containers are combined?
The total volume of the combined containers is 210250 cubic meters.
Let’s add the volume of both containers:
210125 + 125 = 210250 cubic meters.
When the cube root of 210125 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
2 × 59 = 118 The cube of 118 = 1643032
When we multiply the cube root of 210125 by 2, it results in a significant increase in volume because the cube value increases exponentially.
Find ∛(105062 + 105063).
∛(105062 + 105063) = ∛210125 = 59
As shown in the question ∛(105062 + 105063), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 105062 + 105063 = 210125.
Then we use this step: ∛210125 = 59 to get the answer.
