Solution
In this case, the square of a number is subtracted from the cube of the number to give 48 as result.
Let us assume first that the number is to be X.
Then, Square of the natural number is x²
Again, cube of the same natural number is x³
According to the problem,
x³ - x² = 48
or, x²(x-1) = 48
or, x²(x-1) = 4²(4-1) as 4 raised to the power of 2 gives 16 and 4-1 is 3. (16 x 3=48)
This signifies that the value of X is 4 in this problem.
Ans. The value of X is 4 i.e. the natural number.
