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 836.
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 836 can be written as 836³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 836 × 836 × 836.

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 individuals 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. 836³ = 836 × 836 × 836
Step 2: Calculate the result. Hence, the cube of 836 is 584,318,056.
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 836 into two parts. Let a = 800 and b = 36, so a + b = 836
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 800³
3a²b = 3 × 800² × 36
3ab² = 3 × 800 × 36²
b³ = 36³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(800 + 36)³ = 800³ + 3 × 800² × 36 + 3 × 800 × 36² + 36³
836³ = 512,000,000 + 69,120,000 + 3,110,400 + 46,656
836³ = 584,318,056
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 836 is 584,318,056.
To find the cube of 836 using a calculator, input the number 836 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 836 × 836 × 836. This operation calculates the value of 836³, resulting in 584,318,056. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Input 836
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 836³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 836 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 584,318,056.
There are some typical errors that individuals might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that might occur:

What is the cube and cube root of 836?
The cube of 836 is 584,318,056 and the cube root of 836 is approximately 9.431.
First, let’s find the cube of 836.
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 836³ = 584,318,056
Next, we must find the cube root of 836 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 ∛836 ≈ 9.431
Hence the cube of 836 is 584,318,056 and the cube root of 836 is approximately 9.431.
If the side length of the cube is 836 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 584,318,056 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 836 for the side length: V = 836³ = 584,318,056 cm³.
How much larger is 836³ than 800³?
836³ – 800³ = 72,318,056.
First, find the cube of 836, which is 584,318,056
Next, find the cube of 800, which is 512,000,000
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 584,318,056 – 512,000,000 = 72,318,056
Therefore, 836³ is 72,318,056 larger than 800³.
If a cube with a side length of 836 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 400 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 836 cm is 584,318,056 cm³.
To find its volume, multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 836 means multiplying 836 by itself three times: 836 × 836 = 698,896, and then 698,896 × 836 = 584,318,056.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³), because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 584,318,056 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 835.9 using the cube of 836.
The cube of 835.9 is approximately 584,318,056.
First, identify the cube of 836, The cube of 836 is 836³ = 584,318,056.
Since 835.9 is only a tiny bit less than 836, the cube of 835.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 836.
The cube of 835.9 is approximately 584,318,056 because the difference between 835.9 and 836 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 584,318,056.
