Cube Numbers - Worksheet

The "Cube Numbers Worksheet" is a mathematics resource designed to help students in recognising and working with cube numbers through a variety of tasks that challenge their fluency, reasoning, and problem-solving skills. The worksheet presents a series of exercises starting with filling in the blanks for cube equations, such as multiplying the same number three times to find its cube. Students are then asked to identify cube numbers from a list by circling them and to match cube numbers with their equivalent numeric expressions. For example, they would link the expression 5³ with the number 125, reinforcing their understanding of how numbers are cubed.

Further activities on the worksheet include completing number sentences by adding, subtracting, or multiplying cube numbers, and comparing cube numbers using greater than, less than, or equal signs. These exercises encourage students to apply their knowledge of cube numbers in different mathematical contexts. Additionally, students are tasked with shading cube numbers from a grid, solving number sentences like 8³ or 9³, and tackling word problems that require them to deduce a number based on clues related to its square and cubic values. The worksheet is designed to be interactive and engaging, prompting students to think critically about the properties of cube numbers and how they relate to other mathematical concepts.
