Cube of Rational numbers : In the previous sections, we have learnt about the cubes of natural numbers and negative integers. Similarly, we define the cubes of rational numbers which is not an integer as given below.

Rational Number's cube

Let a = m /n be a rational number
(m, n are non zero integers such that n ≠ + or – 1) other than an integer, then the cube of a is defined as
a³ = a x a x a or
(m/n)³ = m/n x m/n x m/n = m³/ n³

Examples :

1) Find (2/3)³
Solution:
(2/3)³ = 2³/3³ = 2 x 2 x 2/ 3 x 3 x 3 = 8 /27
_______________________________________________________________
2) Find (5 2⁄7)³
Solution :
5 2⁄7 = 37/7
= 37³/7³
= 37 x 37 x 37/ 7 x 7 x 7
= 50653/343
________________________________________________________________
3) Find (3 1⁄10)³
Solution :
3 1⁄10 = 31/10
= 31³/10³
= 31 x 31 x 31/ 10 x 10 x 10
= 29791/1000
________________________________________________________________
4) Find (-6/11)³
Solution:
(-6/11)³ = (-6)³/11³
= (-6) x (-6) x (-6)/ 11 x 11 x 11
= -216 /1331
__________________________________________________________________
5) Find (-1/10)³
Solution:
(-1/11)³ = (-1)³/10³
= (-1) x (-1) x (-1)/ 10 x 10 x 10
= -1 /1000
__________________________________________________________________
6) Find (a/8)³
Solution:
(a/8)³ = (a)³/8³
= (a) x (a) x (a)/ 8 x 8 x 8
= a³ /512
