How to find out the value of cube root of 74088
We will find all the factors under the cube root of 74088 and then we will take three values at a time and when we apply the cube root on the complete prime factorization `then those three values which we have taken at a time then only one value out of three will come out. So let’s start –
Step 1: There are 5 digits in the given number. So here we consider the first two digits from left, i.e., 74 and the last digit 8 from the unit place
Step 2: Now we have to find, if the value of a cube is 74. If there is no number found whose value of cube gives the value 74, then we have to consider the cube root number whose cube value is lesser than 74
Step 3: The nearest value of cube which is lesser than 74 is 64
4ᶟ= 64
Step 4: Now the first digit in the value of cube root of 74088 becomes 4
Let us assume the second digit after 4 be x (= 4x)
Step 5: To find the value of ‘x’ in 4x, which is the value of cube root of 74088.
According to the method to find the value of ‘x’ we have to consider the last digit of the cube value, 74088
Now we know that the cube value of 2 is 8.
(for easy understanding, 2 is the value of cube root of 8.
i.e., when 2 multiplied thrice its value is 8. And in the value 74088 the last digit also is 8. Hence the unit digit is 2, x=2)
So the last digit in the unit place is 2
Step 6 : Hence the value of x in ∛74088 = 42 ,value of the last digit in unit place becomes 2
i.e., x= 2
Therefore, we can claim that the value of cube root of the given number 74088 is 42
Step 7: The final answer can be expressed as ∛74088 = 42
Multiple choice Question
NO.1) What should be the One’s digit in the cube root for the cube number 74088?
a) 1
b) 6
c) 2
d) 8
Answer is c) 2
Now we know that the cube value of 2 is 2.
i.e., when 2 multiplied thrice its value is 8. And in the value 74088 the last digit also is 8. Hence the unit digit is, x=2)
So the last digit in the unit place is 2
No.2) How many times 42 is multiplied to get the value 74088 ?
a) Two times
b) Three times
c) Four times
d) Five times
Answer is b) three times
Because 42 multiplied three times gives the value 74088 which means 42ᶟ= 74088
