Answer: Its cube is six times the

cube of the given number.

Explanation:

Let's assume we have a number which is 2. The cube will be:

= 2³

= 2 × 2 × 2

= 8

Let's now assume, we double the number 2, we'll have 2 × 2 = 4. Therefore, the cube will be:

= 4³

= 4 × 4 × 4

= 64

Therefore, from the explanation above, 2 raise to power 6 is 64. This means, if a number is doubled, then its cube is six times the cube of the given number.
