UXO game to practice
'Cube roots' for 8th grade

Calculating 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.

UXO is a click to clear game with multiple targets at different levels

Large thumbnail for math game UXO

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.


Notes

  • This is a fast-paced game of clicking or dragging over moving targets.
  • Also suitable for tablets and mobiles (it's actually easier than with a mouse)
  • Answer math questions correctly for a higher score
  • Hit all the targets in 30 seconds or you lose points.
