Cube of Numbers: The number with exponent 3 is called cube.
The word ‘cube’ is used in geometry. A cube is a solid figure which has all its sides equal.
There are only ten perfect cubes from 1 to 1000.
If a number is a number, then the cube of a is a³,
a x a x a = a³

Examples
1. 2³ = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8, that is the cube of 2 is 8.

2. 3³ = 3 x 3 x 3 = 27, that is the cube of 3 is 27.

3. 4³ = 4 x 4 x 4 = 64, that is the cube of 4 is 64.

4. (1.2)³ = 1.2 x 1.2 x 1.2 = 1.728

5. (2/3)³ = 2/3 x 2/3 x 2/3 = 8/27

A natural number is said to be a perfect cube if it is the cube of some natural number.

Example
8 = 2 x 2 x 2
8 = 2³
8 is the perfect cube because it is a cube of 2 which is a natural number.
But 12 is not a perfect cube because it is not a cube of any natural numbers.
