The method (Threes make cubes): Cube: n × n × n. Cube root: the number that, used three times, gives the cube. Units digits: 1→1, 2→8, 3→7, 4→4, 5→5, 6→6, 7→3, 8→2, 9→9, 0→0 — use them to guess cube roots. Make a perfect cube: break into primes; multiply by what completes each group of three (or divide by what is left over). A big cube of edge a cut into small cubes of edge b gives (a ÷ b)³ small cubes.
