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 97.
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 97 can be written as 97³, which is the exponential form.
Or it can also be written in arithmetic form as, 97 × 97 × 97.
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 kids to 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 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. 97³ = 97 × 97 × 97
Step 2: You get 912,673 as the answer.
Hence, the cube of 97 is 912,673.
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 97 into two parts, as 90 and 7. Let a = 90 and b = 7, so a + b = 97
Step 2: Now, apply the formula (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
Step 3: Calculate each term a³ = 90³ 3a²b = 3 × 90² × 7 3ab² = 3 × 90 × 7² b³ = 7³
Step 4: Add all the terms together: (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³ (90 + 7)³ = 90³ + 3 × 90² × 7 + 3 × 90 × 7² + 7³ 97³ = 729,000 + 170,100 + 13,230 + 343 97³ = 912,673
Step 5: Hence, the cube of 97 is 912,673.
To find the cube of 97 using a calculator, input the number 97 and use the cube function (if available) or multiply 97 × 97 × 97. This operation calculates the value of 97³, resulting in 912,673. It’s a quick way to determine the cube without manual computation.
Step 1: Ensure the calculator is functioning properly.
Step 2: Press 9 followed by 7
Step 3: If the calculator has a cube function, press it to calculate 97³.
Step 4: If there is no cube function on the calculator, simply multiply 97 three times manually.
Step 5: The calculator will display 912,673.
There are some typical errors that kids might make during the process of cubing a number. Let us take a look at five of the major mistakes that kids might make:
What is the cube and cube root of 97?
The cube of 97 is 912,673 and the cube root of 97 is approximately 4.594.
First, let’s find the cube of 97.
We know that the cube of a number is x³ = y
Where x is the given number, and y is the cubed value of that number.
So, we get 97³ = 912,673 Next, we must find the cube root of 97.
We know that the cube root of a number ‘x’ is represented as ∛x = y
Where ‘x’ is the given number, and y is the cube root value of the number.
So, we get ∛97 ≈ 4.594
Hence, the cube of 97 is 912,673 and the cube root of 97 is approximately 4.594.
If the side length of the cube is 97 cm, what is the volume?
The volume is 912,673 cm³.
Use the volume formula for a cube V = Side³.
Substitute 97 for the side length: V = 97³ = 912,673 cm³.
How much larger is 97³ than 87³?
97³ – 87³ = 325,823.
First, find the cube of 97³, that is 912,673.
Next, find the cube of 87³, which is 586,850.
Now, find the difference between them using the subtraction method. 912,673 – 586,850 = 325,823
Therefore, 97³ is 325,823 larger than 87³.
If a cube with a side length of 97 cm is compared to a cube with a side length of 17 cm, how much larger is the volume of the larger cube?
The volume of the cube with a side length of 97 cm is 912,673 cm³.
To find its volume, we multiply the side length by itself three times (since it’s a 3-dimensional object).
Cubing 97 means multiplying 97 by itself three times: 97 × 97 = 9,409, and then 9,409 × 97 = 912,673.
The unit of volume is cubic centimeters (cm³) because we are calculating the space inside the cube.
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 912,673 cm³.
Estimate the cube of 96.9 using the cube of 97.
The cube of 96.9 is approximately 912,673.
First, identify the cube of 97.
The cube of 97 is 97³ = 912,673. Since 96.9 is only a tiny bit less than 97, the cube of 96.9 will be almost the same as the cube of 97.
The cube of 96.9 is approximately 912,673 because the difference between 96.9 and 97 is very small.
So, we can approximate the value as 912,673.
