  2. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    The cube root of 456533 is 77. This process can be extended to find cube roots that are 3 digits long, by using arithmetic modulo 11. [3] These types of tricks can be used in any root where the order of the root is coprime with 10; thus it fails to work in square root, since the power, 2, divides into 10. 3 does not divide 10, thus cube roots work.

  4. nth root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_root

    A square root of a number x is a number r which, when squared, becomes x: =. Every positive real number has two square roots, one positive and one negative. For example, the two square roots of 25 are 5 and −5. The positive square root is also known as the principal square root, and is denoted with a radical sign:

  5. Dudeney number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dudeney_number

    A natural number is a sociable Dudeney root if it is a periodic point for ,, where , = for a positive integer , and forms a cycle of period . A Dudeney root is a sociable Dudeney root with k = 1 {\displaystyle k=1} , and a amicable Dudeney root is a sociable Dudeney root with k = 2 {\displaystyle k=2} .

  6. Cube root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_root

    The principal cube root is the cube root with the largest real part. In the case of negative real numbers, the largest real part is shared by the two nonreal cube roots, and the principal cube root is the one with positive imaginary part. So, for negative real numbers, the real cube root is not the principal cube root. For positive real numbers ...

  7. 128 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/128_(number)

    The sum of Euler's totient function φ(x) over the first twenty integers is 128. [4] 128 can be expressed by a combination of its digits with mathematical operators, thus 128 = 2 8 − 1, making it a Friedman number in base 10. [5] A hepteract has 128 vertices. 128 is the only 3-digit number that is a 7th power (2 7).

  8. Nested radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_radical

    In the case of two nested square roots, the following theorem completely solves the problem of denesting. [2]If a and c are rational numbers and c is not the square of a rational number, there are two rational numbers x and y such that + = if and only if is the square of a rational number d.

    For instance, the numeral for 10,405 uses one time the symbol for 10,000, four times the symbol for 100, and five times the symbol for 1. A similar well-known framework is the Roman numeral system . It has the symbols I, V, X, L, C, D, M as its basic numerals to represent the numbers 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, and 1000.
