The cube root of 54 is the value that, when multiplied by itself three times (cubed), gives the original number 54. Do you know? Cube roots apply to our real life also, like that for measuring dimensions, density and mass, field of engineering etc.

What Is the Cubic Root of 54?

The cube root of 54 is 3.77976314968. The cube root of 54 is expressed as ∛54 in radical form, where the “ ∛ “  sign is called the “radical” sign. In exponential form, it is written as (54)⅓. If “m” is the cube root of 54, then, m3=54. Let us find the value of “m”.
 

Finding the Cube Root of 54

The cube root of 54 is expressed as 3∛2 as its simplest radical form,

since 54 = 3×3×3×2


∛54 = ∛(3×3×3×2)


Group together three same factors at a time and put the remaining factor under the ∛ .


∛54= 3∛2 


 We can find cube root of 54 through a method, named as, Halley’s Method. Let us see how it finds the result.
 

Cube Root of 54 By Halley’s Method

Now, what is Halley’s Method? It is an iterative method for finding cube roots of a given number N, such that, x3=N,

where this method approximates the value of “x”.


Formula is ∛a≅ x((x3+2a) / (2x3+a)), where 


a=given number whose cube root you are going to find


x=integer guess for the cubic root


Let us apply Halley’s method on the given number 54.


Step 1: Let a=54. Let us take x as 3, since, 33=27 is the nearest perfect cube which is less than 54.


Step 2: Apply the formula.  ∛54≅ 3((33+2×54) / (2(3)3+54))= 3.75


Hence, 3.75 is the approximate cubic root of 54.
