Find the cube root of 2197 numbers using estimation method
Answers
For calculating the cube root of 2197, this number has to be separated in two group, i.e. 2 and 197.
considering the group 197:
197 ends with 7 and we know that if digit 7 is at the end of any perfect cube number, then its cube root will have 3 at its unit place only. Therefore, the digits at the units place of the required cube root is taken as 3.
Now consider the other group 2:
We know that the 13=1 and 23=8
Also, 1<2<8
So, 1 will be taken at the tens place. So, the required cube root of 2197 is 13.
3 root over 2197=13
Step 1:
Take the digit present at the unit’s place of 2197.
Unit Place of 2197 has —> 7
Step 2:
Check with the cubes table provided above. The cube of which number has 7 at its unit place?
Clearly, 33 = 27
That means the cubic root of 2197 will have 3 at the unit place.
Say, 3√2197 = ?3
Step 3:
So, we have got the unit place digit of the required value.
Now ignore the last 3 digits of 2197, i.e. 197
Taking 2 as a reference number, we can see 2 lies between 13 and 23, i.e., between 1 and 8.
So, we will choose here the lowest number, nearest to 2, which is 1.
Since, 13 = 1, therefore, we will have 1 as the first digit of the required number.
☞ Hence, 3√2197 = 13
