A number we multiply by itself three times to get the original number is its cube root. It has various uses in real life, such as finding the volume of cube-shaped objects and designing structures. We will now find the cube root of 39304 and explain the methods used.
We have learned the definition of the cube root. Now, let’s learn how it is represented using a symbol and exponent. The symbol we use to express the cube root is the radical sign (∛), and the exponent we use is ⅓.
In exponential form, ∛39304 is written as 39304(1/3). The cube root is just the opposite operation of finding the cube of a number. For example: Assume ‘y’ as the cube root of 39304, then y3 can be 39304. Since the cube root of 39304 is not an exact whole number, we can write it as approximately 34.22.
Finding the cube root of a number is to identify the number that must be multiplied three times resulting in the target number. Now, we will go through the different ways to find the cube root of 39304. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a non-perfect cube number, we often follow Halley’s method. Since 39304 is not a perfect cube, we use Halley’s method.
Let's find the cube root of 39304 using Halley’s method.
The formula is: ∛a ≅ x((x3 + 2a) / (2x3 + a))
where: - a = the number for which the cube root is being calculated
- x = the nearest perfect cube
Substituting, a = 39304;
x = 34
∛a ≅ 34((343 + 2 × 39304) / (2 × 343 + 39304))
∛39304 ≅ 34.22
The cube root of 39304 is approximately 34.22.
Finding the perfect cube of a number without any errors can be a difficult task for students. This happens for many reasons. Here are a few mistakes students commonly make and ways to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped storage container that has a total volume of 39304 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the container.
Side of the cube = ∛39304 = 34.22 units
To find the side of the cube, we need to find the cube root of the given volume.
Therefore, the side length of the cube is approximately 34.22 units.
A company produces 39304 cubic meters of a material. Calculate the amount of material left after using 15000 cubic meters.
The amount of material left is 24304 cubic meters.
To find the remaining material, subtract the used material from the total amount:
39304 - 15000 = 24304 cubic meters.
A container holds 39304 cubic meters of liquid. Another container holds a volume of 5000 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the contents are combined?
The total volume of the combined contents is 44304 cubic meters.
Add the volume of both containers:
39304 + 5000 = 44304 cubic meters.
When the cube root of 39304 is multiplied by 3, calculate the resultant value.
3 × 34.22 = 102.66
When we multiply the cube root of 39304 by 3, it results in a larger value, showing how scaling affects the cube root.
Find ∛(45000+45000).
∛(45000+45000) = ∛90000 ≈ 44.78
As shown in the question ∛(45000+45000), we can simplify that by adding them.
So, 45000 + 45000 = 90000.
Then, use this step: ∛90000 ≈ 44.78 to get the answer.
