Cube (algebra) the last two digits, "any" pair of digits with the last digit odd can be a perfect cube. With even cubes, there is considerable restriction, for only 00, 2, 4, 6 and 8 can be the last two digits of a perfect cube (where stands for any odd digit and for any even digit). Some cube numbers are also square numbers; for example, 64 is a square number and a cube number . This happens if and only if the number is a perfect sixth power (in this case 2). The last digits of each 3rd power are: It is,
Nth root Nth root In mathematics, an "n"th root of a number "x", where "n" is usually assumed to be a positive integer, is a number "r" which, when raised to the power "n" yields "x": where "n" is the "degree" of the root. A root of degree 2 is called a "square root" and a root of degree 3, a "cube root". Roots of higher degree are referred by using ordinal numbers, as in "fourth root", "twentieth root", etc. For example: Any non-zero number, considered as complex number, has "n" different "complex roots of degree "n"" ("n"th roots), including those with
