Game: ROCK FALL
Aim: Smash all the falling rocks
Method:
Click / tap on each falling rock. Answer the question in the box as quickly as you can.
There are only 4 questions in this game so it is quite short... if you can get those rocks!
Your final score is based on number of questions answered right / wrong, and the time taken.

To calculate the cube root of a number, we need to find a number which when multiplied by itself twice (i.e., raised to the power three) gives the original number. The cube root of a number is denoted by the symbol ³√.
For example: 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 so ³√27 = 3
To calculate the cube root of a number using a calculator, we can simply enter the number and press the cube root button (³√). For example, to calculate the cube root of 64, we can enter 64 and then press the cube root button to get the answer 4. We know the answer is correct because 4 x 4 x 4 = 64. Here are some more examples:
Cube root of 8: ³√8 = 2
Cube root of 125: ³√125 = 5
Cube root of 216: ³√216 = 6
Cube root of 343: ³√343 = 7
Cube root of 512: ³√512 = 8
Cube root of 729: ³√729 = 9
Cube root of 1000: ³√1000 = 10
Most numbers do not have cube roots that are integers. Sometimes we need to find the nearest integer to the cube root of a number. For example, the cube root of 67 is approximately 4.06, so the nearest integer to the cube root of 67 is 4. Here are some more examples:
³√50 = ~3.68 which is 4 to the nearest integer
³√120 = ~4.93 which is 5 to the nearest integer
³√500 = ~7.94 which is 8 to the nearest integer
In this topic you are asked to calculate the cube root or the nearest integer to the cube root for numbers up to 1000. You will probably need a calculator when answering questions in this topic.
With our Rock fall math game you will be practicing the topic "Cube roots" from 7th grade / Number / Powers & Roots / Powers & Roots. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the cube root or nearest integer cube root of each of the given numbers.
ROCK FALL is based on the road traffic warning sign for falling rocks - a sign that seems a bit less useful than somebody getting up there on that cliff and actually doing something about it... Anyway, the rocks are falling and it is your job to stop them hitting the road below, or at least stopping them hitting the road below too many times and breaking it. Smash the rocks by clicking or tapping on them (not so easy in real life of course) - they will turn into snowflakes and float gently down into nothing.
There are 4 rocks to stop and not much time to do it (if you want to get a good score and get on the leaderboard). This game is fun and fast and requires good reflexes and a good strategy. Plan to break the smaller rocks first if you want a good score because the rocks fall faster as the game progresses. It also helps to decide where on their path you plan to click / tap the rocks.
