Q6 of 67 Page 97

What are the digits in the unit’s place of the cubes of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10? Is it possible to say that a number is not a perfect cube by looking at the digit in unit’s place of the given number, just like you did for squares?

13 = 1


23 = 8


33 = 27


43 = 64


53 = 125


63 = 216


73 = 343


83 = 512


93 = 729


103 = 1000


The digits at units place are 1, 8, 7, 4, 5, 6, 3, 2 and 9.


Since, all digits are at end of some or other cube.


So, it is not possible to say that a number is not a perfect cube by looking at the digit in unit’s place of the given number.
