Cube Number
Numbers obtained when a number is multiplied by itself three times are known as cube numbers
Example
1=13
8=23
27=33
Some Important point to Note
[Link] Points
1 All cube numbers can end with any digit unlike square number when end with 0, 1, 4,
5, 6 or 9 at unit’s place
2 if a number has 1 in the unit’s place, then it’s cube ends in 1.
5 Even number cubes are even while odd number cubes are Odd
6 There are only ten perfect cubes from 1 to 1000
7 There are only four perfect cubes from 1 to 100
Prime Factorization of Cubes
When we perform the prime factorization of cubes number, we find one special property
8= 2×2×2 (Triplet of prime factor 2)
216 = (2 × 2 × 2) × (3 × 3 × 3) ( Triplet of 2 and 3)
Each prime factor of a number appears three times in the prime factorization of its cube.
Cube Root
Cube root of a number is the number whose cube is given number
So we know that
27=33
Cube root of 27
√27 3
Cube root is denoted by expression √
How to Find cube root
Name Description
Finding cube root This method, we find the prime factorization of the number.
through prime
factorization We will get same prime number occurring in triplet for perfect
cube number. Cube root will be given by multiplication of prime
factor occurring in pair
Consider
74088 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 7 × 7 = 23 × 33 × 73
√74088 2 $ 3 $ 7 42
Finding cube root This can be well explained with the example
by estimation
The given number is 17576.
method
Step 1 Form groups of three starting from the rightmost digit of 17576.
17 576. In this case one group i.e., 576 has three digits whereas 17 has
only two digits.
Step 2 Take 576.
The digit 6 is at its one’s place.
We take the one’s place of the required cube root as 6.
Step 3 Take the other group, i.e., 17.
Cube of 2 is 8 and cube of 3 is 27. 17 lies between 8 and 27.
The smaller number among 2 and 3 is 2.
The one’s place of 2 is 2 itself. Take 2 as ten’s place of the cube root of
17576.
Thus,
√17576 26
