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 8615125 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, ∛8615125 is written as 8615125(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 8615125, then y3 can be 8615125. Since 8615125 is a perfect cube, its cube root is exactly 205.
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 8615125. The common methods we follow to find the cube root are given below:
To find the cube root of a perfect cube like 8615125, we can use the prime factorization method for an exact result.
Let's find the cube root of 8615125 using the prime factorization method:
1. Break down 8615125 into its prime factors: \(8615125 = 5^3 \times 7^3 \times 11^3\).
2. Since each factor is raised to the power of 3, the cube root can be directly obtained by taking one of each factor: - (∛(5^3) = 5) - (∛(7^3) = 7) - (∛(11^3) = 11)
3. Multiply these results: (5 times 7 times 11 = 385).
The cube root of 8615125 is 205.
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 the students commonly make and the ways to avoid them:
Imagine you have a cube-shaped container with a total volume of 8615125 cubic centimeters. Find the length of one side of the container.
Side of the cube = ∛8615125 = 205 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 exactly 205 units.
A factory produces 8615125 cubic meters of a product. Calculate the remaining product after using 1000000 cubic meters.
The remaining product is 7615125 cubic meters.
To find the remaining product, subtract the used product from the total amount:
8615125 - 1000000 = 7615125 cubic meters.
A storage unit has a volume of 8615125 cubic meters. Another unit has a volume of 500000 cubic meters. What would be the total volume if the units are combined?
The total volume of the combined units is 9115125 cubic meters.
Add the volume of both units:
8615125 + 500000 = 9115125 cubic meters.
When the cube root of 8615125 is multiplied by 3, calculate the resultant value. How will this affect the cube of the new value?
3 × 205 = 615
The cube of 615 = 231344375
Multiplying the cube root of 8615125 by 3 results in a significant increase in the volume when the cube of the new value is calculated.
Find ∛(8615125 + 8615125).
∛(8615125 + 8615125) = ∛17230250 ≈ 259.5
As shown in the question ∛(8615125 + 8615125), we first add the numbers:
8615125 + 8615125 = 17230250.
Then we use this step: ∛17230250 ≈ 259.5 to get the answer.
