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 1036.
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 1036 can be written as 1036³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 1036 × 1036 × 1036.
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.
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. 1036³ = 1036 × 1036 × 1036
Step 2: You get 1,112,486,656 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 1036 is 1,112,486,656.
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 1036 into two parts, as 1000 and 36. Let a = 1000 and b = 36, so a + b = 1036
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 1000³
3a²b = 3 × 1000² × 36
3ab² = 3 × 1000 × 36²
b³ = 36³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(1000 + 36)³ = 1000³ + 3 × 1000² × 36 + 3 × 1000 × 36² + 36³
1036³ = 1,000,000,000 + 108,000,000 + 3,888,000 + 46,656
1036³ = 1,112,486,656
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 1036 is 1,112,486,656.
To find the cube of 1036 using a calculator, input the number 1036 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 1036 × 1036 × 1036. This operation calculates the value of 1036³, resulting in 1,112,486,656. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 1 followed by 0, 3, 6
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 1036³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 1036 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 1,112,486,656.
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:
What is the cube and cube root of 1036?
The cube of 1036 is 1,112,486,656 and the cube root of 1036 is approximately 10.127.
First, let’s find the cube of 1036.
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 1036³ = 1,112,486,656.
Next, we must find the cube root of 1036.
We know that the 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 ∛1036 ≈ 10.127.
Hence the cube of 1036 is 1,112,486,656 and the cube root of 1036 is approximately 10.127.
If the side length of a cube is 1036 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 1,112,486,656 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 1036 for the side length: V = 1036³ = 1,112,486,656 cm³.
How much larger is 1036³ than 1000³?
1036³ – 1000³ = 112,486,656.
First, find the cube of 1036³, which is 1,112,486,656.
Next, find the cube of 1000³, which is 1,000,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 1,112,486,656 – 1,000,000,000 = 112,486,656.
Therefore, 1036³ is 112,486,656 larger than 1000³.
If a cube with a side length of 1036 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 100 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 1036 cm is 1,112,486,656 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 1036 means multiplying 1036 by itself three times: 1036 × 1036 = 1,073,296, and then 1,073,296 × 1036 = 1,112,486,656.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1,112,486,656 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 1035 using the cube of 1036.
The cube of 1035 is approximately 1,111,727,875.
First, identify the cube of 1036.
The cube of 1036 is 1036³ = 1,112,486,656.
Since 1035 is only a tiny bit less than 1036, the cube of 1035 will be slightly less than the cube of 1036.
The cube of 1035 is approximately 1,111,727,875 because the difference between 1035 and 1036 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 1,111,727,875.
