Cube of 826

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 826 can be written as 826³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 826 × 826 × 826.

How to Calculate the Value of Cube of 826

To determine 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 calculate the cube of numbers faster and easier without confusion or being 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. 826³ = 826 × 826 × 826

 

Step 2: You get 563,975,576 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 826 is 563,975,576.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

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 826 into two parts, as 800 and 26. Let a = 800 and b = 26, so a + b = 826

 

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

 

Step 3: Calculate each term

 

a³ = 800³

 

3a²b = 3 × 800² × 26

 

3ab² = 3 × 800 × 26²

 

b³ = 26³

 

Step 4: Add all the terms together:

 

(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³

 

(800 + 26)³ = 800³ + 3 × 800² × 26 + 3 × 800 × 26² + 26³

 

826³ = 512,000,000 + 49,920,000 + 1,622,400 + 17,576

 

826³ = 563,975,576

 

Step 5: Hence, the cube of 826 is 563,975,576.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using a Calculator

To find the cube of 826 using a calculator, input the number 826 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 826 × 826 × 826. This operation calculates the value of 826³, resulting in 563,975,576. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.

 

Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.

 

Step 2: Press 8, 2, 6

 

Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 826³.

 

Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 826 three times manually.

 

Step 5: The calculator will display 563,975,576.

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Calculating the Cube of 826

There are some typical errors that might occur during the process of cubing a number. Let's take a look at five major mistakes that can happen:

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Incorrect Multiplication

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

People might multiply the numbers only twice. That is, 826 × 826 and not 826 × 826 × 826. Always remember that 826³ = 826 × 826 × 826.

Mistake 2

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Misunderstanding the Cube Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

There is a possibility of confusion between the formulas of square numbers and cube numbers. The square number formula is (a + b)² and the cube number formula is (a + b)³. Always review the formula for the difference between squaring and cubing.

Mistake 3

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Calculator Misuse

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

One might press the wrong buttons, such as using the square (x²) function instead of the cube (x³) function or skipping steps in manual multiplication. Always double-check your inputs on the calculator, and if it lacks a cube function, perform the multiplication in steps.

Mistake 4

Misplacing Zeros

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Misplacing zeros during manual multiplication leads to incorrect results like 56,397,576 instead of 563,975,576. Always double-check your answers.

Mistake 5

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Ignoring the Binomial Formula

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

One might attempt to split 826 into 800 + 26 but not apply the correct binomial expansion. To avoid this, carefully calculate each term step-by-step during the application of the formula.

Problem 1

What is the cube and cube root of 826?

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

The cube of 826 is 563,975,576 and the cube root of 826 is approximately 9.412.

Explanation

First, let’s find the cube of 826.

 

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 826³ = 563,975,576

 

Next, we must find the cube root of 826 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 ∛826 ≈ 9.412

 

Hence, the cube of 826 is 563,975,576 and the cube root of 826 is approximately 9.412.

Problem 4

If a cube with a side length of 826 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 200 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 826 cm is 563,975,576 cm³.

Explanation

To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).

 

Cubing 826 means multiplying 826 by itself three times: 826 × 826 = 682,276, and 682,276 × 826 = 563,975,576.

 

The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.

 

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 563,975,576 cm³.

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

The cube of 825.5 is approximately 563,975,576.

Explanation

First, identify the cube of 826, The cube of 826 is 826³ = 563,975,576.

 

Since 825.5 is only a tiny bit less than 826, the cube of 825.5 will be almost the same as the cube of 826.

 

The cube of 825.5 is approximately 563,975,576 because the difference between 825.5 and 826 is very small.
