When a number is multiplied by itself thrice, the resultant number is called the cube of a number. Cubing is used when comparing the sizes of objects or things with cubic measurements. In this topic, we shall learn about the cube of 848.
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 multiplying a negative number by itself three times results in a negative number.
The cube of 848 can be written as 848³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as 848 × 848 × 848.

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 cube 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. 848³ = 848 × 848 × 848
Step 2: Calculate the product to find the answer. The cube of 848 is 609,493,952.
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 848 into two parts, such as a and b. Let a = 800 and b = 48, so a + b = 848
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 800³
3a²b = 3 × 800² × 48
3ab² = 3 × 800 × 48²
b³ = 48³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(800 + 48)³ = 800³ + 3 × 800² × 48 + 3 × 800 × 48² + 48³
848³ = 512,000,000 + 92,160,000 + 55,296,000 + 110,592
848³ = 609,493,952
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 848 is 609,493,952.
To find the cube of 848 using a calculator, input the number 848 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 848 × 848 × 848. This operation calculates the value of 848³, resulting in 609,493,952. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 8 followed by 4 and 8
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 848³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 848 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 609,493,952.
There are some typical errors that might be made during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that might be made:

What is the cube and cube root of 848?
The cube of 848 is 609,493,952 and the cube root of 848 is approximately 9.439.
First, let’s find the cube of 848.
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 848³ = 609,493,952.
Next, we must find the cube root of 848.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’, such that ³√x = y, where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ³√848 ≈ 9.439.
Hence, the cube of 848 is 609,493,952 and the cube root of 848 is approximately 9.439.
If the side length of a cube is 848 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 609,493,952 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 848 for the side length: V = 848³ = 609,493,952 cm³.
How much larger is 848³ than 500³?
848³ − 500³ = 484,493,952.
First, find the cube of 848, which is 609,493,952.
Next, find the cube of 500, which is 125,000,000.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 609,493,952 − 125,000,000 = 484,493,952.
Therefore, 848³ is 484,493,952 larger than 500³.
If a cube with a side length of 848 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 848 cm is 609,493,952 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 848 means multiplying 848 by itself three times: 848 × 848 = 719,104, and then 719,104 × 848 = 609,493,952.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 609,493,952 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 847.9 using the cube of 848.
The cube of 847.9 is approximately 609,493,952.
First, identify the cube of 848, the cube of 848 is 848³ = 609,493,952.
Since 847.9 is only a tiny bit less than 848, the cube of 847.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 848.
The cube of 847.9 is approximately 609,493,952 because the difference between 847.9 and 848 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 609,493,952.
