The cube root of a number a is that number which when multiplied by itself three times gives the number ‘a’ itself. The cube root is the inverse operation of cubing a number. The cube root symbol is ∛, it is the “radical” symbol (used for square roots) with a little three to mean cube root.
Perfect Cube Root
A cube is a number that will result in a number multiplied by itself three times for example if y is a perfect cube root of z then y = z3. If the number 5 is multiplied 3 times it results in 125 so 125 is a perfect cube root of 5.
Perfect cube root of any number = number x number x number.
A perfect cube root will always give an integer answer but a non-perfect cube root will not give an integer answer. Perfect cube root will be free from decimals and fractions.
Suppose, if n is a perfect cube for any integer m i.e., n = m3, then m is called the cube root of n and it is denoted by m = [sqrt[3]{n}].

Properties of Cube Root
-
The cube root of the odd number will always be an odd number.

The cube root of all even natural numbers is an even number.
-
The cube root of a negative number will always be negative.
-

Cube Root of 1 to 100
The cube root from 1 to 100 will help students to solve mathematical problems. A list of cubic roots of numbers from 1 to 100 is provided in a tabular format. The cube root has many applications in Math, especially in geometry where we find the volume of different solid shapes, measured in cubic units. It will help us to find the dimensions of solids. For example, a cube has volume ‘x’ cubic meter, then we can find the side-length of the cube by evaluating the cube root of its volume, i.e., side = [sqrt[3]{x}]. Let us see the values of cubic roots of numbers from 1 to 100.

Finding the Cube Root of a Perfect Cube
Recall that a perfect cube is a number that is the result of multiplying a number with itself 3 times.
We can think of cube roots in the same context that we view square roots. When we take the square root of a perfect square, we are searching for the number that, when multiplied by itself two times, results in the perfect square. Similarly, when we are finding the cube root of the perfect cube, we are searching for the number that when multiplied by itself three times, results in the perfect cube.
Let’s solve an example.
Find [sqrt[3]{343}].
Solution: To find this, we first need to break 343 into its prime factorization. To do so, we need to find the first pair of factors that include a prime number. For 343, this first pair will be 7 and 49. 7 cannot be broken down any further, but 49 can be broken into 7and 7. Therefore, we can say that [sqrt[3]{343}] = [sqrt[3]{7}] x 7 x 7, so we can say that the cube root of 343 is 7, where 7 x 7 x 7 = 343
Solved Examples
Example 1: Solve [sqrt[3]{4}] – [sqrt[3]{2}].
Solution: From the table, we can get the value of [sqrt[3]{4}] and [sqrt[3]{2}]
[sqrt[3]{4}] = 1.587 [sqrt[3]{4}] = [sqrt[3]{7}]
[sqrt[3]{2}] = 1.260
Therefore,
[sqrt[3]{4}] + [sqrt[3]{2}] = 1.587 – 1.260
= 0.327
Example 2: Evaluate the value of [6sqrt[3]{4}]
Solution: We know,
[sqrt[3]{4}] = 1.587
Therefore,
[6sqrt[3]{4}] = 6 x 1.587
= 9.522
