Question

"Zachary invested $50 and was able to triple his money in two years. Kayla also began with $50 in investments, and was able to cube her money in two years. Who had more money after two years? Explain." WHAT DOES CUBE MEAN?

Answer 1

To cube something means to take it by 3, when used in the sentance, 3 cubed it refers to 3^3 power which means 3*3*3 which equals 21. In this context I'm guessing that they mean 50^3 which would be $125,000.

Hope this helps!=)
