Game: UXO
Aim: Knock out the targets, avoid the bombs
Method:
Click or tap and hold to destroy the objects while avoiding the bombs. When you knock out all 10 targets, you must answer the question to continue to the next level. There is a time limit of 30 seconds to get all 10 targets or you lose 50 points.
Scoring is :
Hit target : +10
Hit bomb : -5
Right answer : +50
Wrong answers : -20

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 UXO 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.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
