Evaluate the following using suitable identity:

(998)3 

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

It is known that,

(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab(a + b) and (a − b)3 = a3 − b3 − 3ab(a − b)

∴ (998)3 = (1000 − 2)3

= (1000)3 − (2)3 − 3(1000)(2)(1000 − 2)

= 1000000000 − 8 − 6000(998)

= 1000000000 − 8 − 5988000

= 1000000000 − 5988008

= 994011992
