Question 42 Marks
Find the cube root of the following numbers.

32768

Answer
32768
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4
= (2 × 4 × 4) × (2 × 4 × 4) × (2 × 4 × 4)
= (2 × 4 × 4)³
= 32³
$\therefore \sqrt[3]{32768}=3$

Question 52 Marks
Find the cube root of the following numbers.

-2744

Answer
-2744
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 7 × 7 × 7
= (2 × 7) × (2 × 7) × (2 × 7)
= (2 × 7)³
= 14³
∴ -2744 = (-14) × (-14) × (-14)
= (-14)³
$\begin{aligned} & \therefore \sqrt[3]{-2744}=-14 \\ & \begin{array}{c|c}\hline 2 & 2744 \\ \hline 2 & 1372 \\ \hline 2 & 686 \\ \hline 7 & 343 \\ \hline 7 & 49 \\ \hline 7 & 7 \\ \hline & 1\end{array} \\ & \end{aligned}$

Question 62 Marks
Find the cube root of the following numbers.

-512

Answer
-512
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 4 × 4 × 4
= (2 × 4) × (2 × 4) × (2 × 4)
= (2 × 4)³
= 8³
∴ – 512 = (- 8) × (- 8) × (- 8)
= (-8)³
$\therefore \sqrt[3]{-512}= -8$
\begin{tabular}{l:l}
\hline 2 & 512 \\
\hline 2 & 256 \\

729

Answer
729
= (3 × 3) × (3 × 3) × (3 × 3)
= (3 × 3)³
= 9³
$
\begin{aligned}
&\therefore \sqrt[3]{729}=9\\

8000

Answer
8000
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 10 × 10 × 10
= (2 × 10) × (2 × 10) × (2 × 10)
= (2 × 10)³
= 20³
\begin{tabular}{c|l}
$\therefore \sqrt[3]{8000}=20$ \\
