Perfect cube

Revision as of 13:39, 1 February 2010 by Yankeesfan (talk | contribs)

A perfect cube is an integer that is equal to some other integer raised to the third power. We refer to raising a number to the third power as cubing the number.

For example, 125 is a perfect cube because $5^3 = 125$. However, 121 is not a perfect cube because there is no integer $n$ such that $n^3 = 121$.
