The new Number becomes 2 x 125 = 250
Find the cube root of 250 and divide the answer by 5 [
since we multiplied the original number by 5
Step 1
250 : 0 0 0
By inspection write down 6 and 34 as the first Q and R .
Since 216 is the perfect cube close to 250 and the
reminder from 250 is 34.
Step 2
250 : 0 0 0
108 : : 34
: 6 :
The dividend is found by multiplying the Quotient Squared
by 3 , 6
Step 3
250 : 0 0 0
108 : : 34 124
: 6 : 2
The second gross dividend is 340 , Do not subtract anything
from this, divide it by 108 and put down 2 as Quotient and
124 as Remainder.
Step 4
250 : 0 0 0
108 : : 34 124 196
: 6 : 2 9
The third gross dividend is 1240 , subtract 3ab
2
The third actual working Dividend is 1240 - 72 = 1168.
Divide 1168 by 108 and put down 9 as Quotient and 196 as
Remainder.
Step 5
250 : 0 0 0
108 : : 34 124 196 332
: 6 : 2 9 9
The 4
2 x 9 + 2
The 4
Divide 1304 by 108 and put down 9 as Quotient and 332
as Remainder.
Step 6
The number of digits in the cube root will be 1 , so the
cube root of 250 is 6.299
Cube root of 2 can be found by dividing 6.2999 by 5
The cube root of 2 is 1.259
