Cube Root of 610
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 610 and explain the methods used.
What is the Cube Root of 610?
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, ∛610 is written as 610(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 610, then y3 can be 610. Since the cube root of 610 is not an exact value, we can write it as approximately 8.534.
Finding the Cube Root of 610
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 610. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
- Prime factorization method
- Approximation method
- Subtraction method
- Halley’s method
To find the cube root of a non-perfect cube number, we often follow Halley’s method. Since 610 is not a perfect cube, we use Halley’s method.
Cube Root of 610 by Halley’s Method
Let's find the cube root of 610 using Halley’s method.
The formula is ∛a ≅ x((x3 + 2a) / (2x3 + a))
where: a = the number for which the cube root is being calculated
x = the nearest perfect cube
Substituting, a = 610; x = 8
∛a ≅ 8((83 + 2 × 610) / (2 × 83 + 610))
∛610 ≅ 8((512 + 1220) / (1024 + 610))
∛610 ≅ 8.534
The cube root of 610 is approximately 8.534.
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in the Cube Root of 610
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 ways to avoid them:
Mistake 1
Trying to find perfect cube roots for non-perfect cube numbers.
Students often try to calculate an exact whole number for the cube root of numbers like 610, which are not perfect cubes. For example, they assume that they would get an exact whole number for 610 like they get for 512 (since ∛512 = 8). To avoid this error, memorize that some numbers don't have a perfect cube root, that is, the cube root of 610 is approximately 8.534.
Mistake 2
Ignoring the exponent form
Most of us might forget that a cube root can also be written in exponent form. For example, forgetting that the cube root of 610 is 610(1/3). To avoid this error, always learn the forms in which we can express the cube root of a number.
Mistake 3
Confusing cube root with division
Some might mistakenly assume the cube root of 610 is to divide 610 by 3. To avoid this, students should remember that the cube root of 610 is the number they multiply by itself three times to get 610.
Mistake 4
Using prime factorization instead of Halley’s method
Instead of using Halley’s method for non-perfect cubes, students might end up using prime factorization. For example, they might try to find the cube root of 610 by breaking it down into its prime factors. Remember that prime factorization can help analyze a number's factors, but it's not the best method for non-perfect cubes. Since 610 is a non-perfect cube, you can use either the approximation method or Halley’s method.
Mistake 5
Rounding too early
Rounding the cube root too early in the process can lead to errors in subsequent steps. For example, we might round the cube root of 610 to 8.5 too early in the calculation. To avoid this, ensure the whole calculation is done, then round the final result.
Cube Root of 610 Examples:
Problem 1
Imagine you have a cube-shaped toy that has a total volume of 610 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the cube equal to its cube root.
Side of the cube = ∛610 = 8.534 units
Explanation
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 approximately 8.534 units.
Problem 2
A company manufactures 610 cubic meters of material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 150 cubic meters.
The amount of material left is 460 cubic meters.
Explanation
To find the remaining material,
we need to subtract the used material from the total amount:
610 - 150 = 460 cubic meters.
Problem 3
A bottle holds 610 cubic meters of volume. Another bottle holds a volume of 200 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the bottles are combined?
The total volume of the combined bottles is 810 cubic meters.
Explanation
Let’s add the volume of both bottles:
610 + 200 = 810 cubic meters.
Problem 4
When the cube root of 610 is multiplied by 2, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
2 × 8.534 = 17.068
The cube of 17.068 ≈ 4972.648
Explanation
When we multiply the cube root of 610 by 2, it results in a significant increase in the volume because the cube increases exponentially.
Problem 5
Find ∛(305 + 305).
∛(305 + 305) = ∛610 ≈ 8.534
Explanation
As shown in the question ∛(305 + 305), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 305 + 305 = 610.
Then we use this step: ∛610 ≈ 8.534 to get the answer.

Important Glossaries for Cube Root of 610
- Cube root: The number that is multiplied by itself three times to get the given number is the cube root of that number.
- Perfect cube: A number is a perfect cube when it is the product of multiplying a number by itself three times. A perfect cube always results in a whole number. For example: 2 × 2 × 2 = 8, therefore, 8 is a perfect cube.
- Exponent: The exponent form of the number denotes the number of times a number can be multiplied by itself. In 610(1/3), ⅓ is the exponent which denotes the cube root of 610.
- Radical sign: The symbol that is used to represent a root which is expressed as (∛).
- Irrational number: The numbers that cannot be put in fractional forms are irrational. For example, the cube root of 610 is irrational because its decimal form goes on continuously without repeating the numbers.
