Cube of 4.25

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 when comparing sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 4.25.

Cube of 4.25

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 multiplied by itself three times results in a negative number.

 

The cube of 4.25 can be written as 4.25³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 4.25 × 4.25 × 4.25.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 4.25

In order to check whether a number is a cube number or not, we can use the following three methods: multiplication method, a factor formula (a³), or by using a calculator. These three methods will help you to cube 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 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. 4.25³ = 4.25 × 4.25 × 4.25

 

Step 2: You get approximately 76.765625 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 4.25 is approximately 76.765625.

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 4.25 into two parts, as 4 and 0.25. Let a = 4 and b = 0.25, so a + b = 4.25

 

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

 

Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 4³ 3a²b = 3 × 4² × 0.25 3ab² = 3 × 4 × 0.25² b³ = 0.25³

 

Step 4: Add all the terms together:

 

(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

 

(4 + 0.25)³ = 4³ + 3 × 4² × 0.25 + 3 × 4 × 0.25² + 0.25³

 

4.25³ = 64 + 12 + 0.75 + 0.015625

 

4.25³ = 76.765625

 

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 4.25 is approximately 76.765625.

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 4.25 using a calculator, input the number 4.25 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 4.25 × 4.25 × 4.25. This operation calculates the value of 4.25³, resulting in approximately 76.765625. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.

 

Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.

 

Step 2: Press 4.25

 

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 4.25³.

 

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 4.25 three times manually.

 

Step 5: The calculator will display approximately 76.765625.
