We can utilize following algebraic identity to easily find cube of any two digit number
A3 = (A - d) x A x (A +
d) + d2 x A
Where, d = any assumed value to easily
compute cube.
Naturally,
this formula works for any value of d, but we choose d to be the distance to a
number close to A that is easy to multiply.For example,
To find cube of the number 23,
Let, d = 3, A = 23
So,
A3 = (A - d) x A x (A +
d) + d2 x A
= (23 - 3) x 23 x (23 + 3) + (3)2
x 23
= 20 x 23 x 26 + (3)2 x
23
= 20 x 598 + 9 x 23
= 11960 + 207
= 12167
