This is blog number 23 from the series of "Vedic maths" blogs. Here in this blog we will learn about "cube root of perfect number"
While dealing with factorization, equation of third power and in many problem of geometry, one will often find to calculate the cube root of numbers.
Calculating cube root of numbers by traditional method is cumbersome procedure, but the technique used by Vedic Mathematics is so fast that one can get the answer in two to three seconds!
The technique for solving cube roots is simply so amazing that the student will be able to correctly predict the cube root of a number just by looking as it and without the need for any intermediate steps.
You might find it difficult to believe, but at the end of study, you will calculating cube root of complicated number like 262144, 12167 and 117649 in 2-3 seconds.
Before we start start actual study, let us clear our concept relating to cube roots.
Cube Rooting:
Let us take the number 3. When we multiply 3 by itself we are said to have squared the number 3. Thus 3×3 is 9. When we multiply 4 by itself we are said to have squared and thus 16 is the square of 4.
Similarly the square of 5 is 25 (Represented as as (5)^2 )
The square of 6 is 36 ( Represented as as (6)^2 )
In squaring, we multiply a number by itself, but in cubing we multiply a number by itself and then we multiply the answer by original number once again.
Thus, the cube of 2 is 2×2×2 and the answer is 8. ( Represented as as (2)^3 )
The cube of 3 is 3×3×3 and the answer is 27. ( Represented as as (3)^3 )
Basically, in squaring we multiply a number itself and in cubing we multiply a number twice by itself.
Now, since you have understood what cubing is it well be easy to understand what cube rooting is. Cube-rooting is the procedure of determining the number which has been twice multiplied by itself to obtain the cube. Calculating the cube-root is reciprocal procedure of calculating a cube.
Thus, if 8 is the cube of 2, then 2 is cube-root of 8.
If 27 is the cube of 3 then 3 is cube-root of 27.
And so on......
We will meet very soon through our next blog. Till that stay connected, stay healthy and stay safe.
Thanks
for giving your valuable time.
Good day😊.
