Answer
View full question & answer→Yes, there is a relation between the number of decimal places in the number and its cube.
(1.2)³ = 1.728, (0.02)³ = 0.000008
No. of decimal places in 1.2 = 1
No. of decimal places in 1.728 = 3
No. of decimal places in 0.02 = 2
No. of decimal places in 0.000008 = 6
Thus, number of decimal places in cube of a number is three times the number of decimal places in that number.
