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 882.
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 882 can be written as 882³, which is the exponential form. Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 882 × 882 × 882.

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 methods will help calculate cubes faster and easier without confusion.
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. 882³ = 882 × 882 × 882
Step 2: You get 685,749,432 as the answer. Hence, the cube of 882 is 685,749,432.
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 882 into two parts, such as 880 and 2. Let a = 880 and b = 2, so a + b = 882
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term
a³ = 880³
3a²b = 3 × 880² × 2
3ab² = 3 × 880 × 2²
b³ = 2³
Step 4: Add all the terms together:
(a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
(880 + 2)³ = 880³ + 3 × 880² × 2 + 3 × 880 × 2² + 2³
882³ = 681,472,000 + 4,646,400 + 10,560 + 8
882³ = 685,749,432
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 882 is 685,749,432.
To find the cube of 882 using a calculator, input the number 882 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 882 × 882 × 882. This operation calculates the value of 882³, resulting in 685,749,432. 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 8 and 2
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 882³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 882 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 685,749,432.
There are some typical errors that might occur during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that might happen:

What is the cube and cube root of 882?
The cube of 882 is 685,749,432 and the cube root of 882 is approximately 9.556.
First, let’s find the cube of 882.
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 882³ = 685,749,432
Next, we must find the cube root of 882
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 ∛882 ≈ 9.556
Hence the cube of 882 is 685,749,432 and the cube root of 882 is approximately 9.556.
If the side length of the cube is 882 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 685,749,432 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 882 for the side length: V = 882³ = 685,749,432 cm³.
How much larger is 882³ than 781³?
882³ – 781³ = 277,267,611.
First, find the cube of 882, which is 685,749,432
Next, find the cube of 781, which is 408,481,821
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 685,749,432 – 408,481,821 = 277,267,611
Therefore, 882³ is 277,267,611 larger than 781³.
If a cube with a side length of 882 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 882 cm is 685,749,432 cm³.
To find its volume, multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 882 means multiplying 882 by itself three times: 882 × 882 = 778,644, and then 778,644 × 882 = 685,749,432.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 685,749,432 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 881.9 using the cube of 882.
The cube of 881.9 is approximately 685,749,432.
First, identify the cube of 882, The cube of 882 is 882³ = 685,749,432.
Since 881.9 is only a tiny bit less than 882, the cube of 881.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 882.
The cube of 881.9 is approximately 685,749,432 because the difference between 881.9 and 882 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 685,749,432.
