Game: THE FROG FLIES
Aim: Help the frog catch the flies
Method:
Use keyboard arrow keys or tap your tablet/mobile to control the frog and catch the flies. Avoid the birds! Answer the math questions to win additional points.
Scoring is based on speed, flies caught and the number of correct answers.
7th grade / Number / Powers & Roots / Squares and cubes / Cube roots
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 The frog flies 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.
Learn or revise math with our fun interactive game THE FROG FLIES! You are a happy hungry frog in the middle of the jungle in the middle of the night. Catch the flies for your supper (and practice math just for fun).
You can play the game on tablet/mobile or desktop computer. On handheld devices you move the frog by tapping where you want it to move to. On a computer, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move.
Sometimes a big bird swoops through the forest catching unwary amphibians so stay alert and get out of the way of its beak!
Scoring is based on flies caught, questions answered and number of deaths by bird. Your final score is your total points minus your time in seconds.
The highest scores for each topic can be saved and seen by clicking on the star button, so get learning and get your frog's name up in lights!
