You need to find the cube root of X
Take any number (Y) and cube it.
* ....If it is smaller than X, add 2 to Y and cube thatnumber. Repeat that process until you get a cube which is larger than X. Subtract 1 from the last number you cubed and cube that number. This will give you either the exact X you were looking for, or a very close number. * .... If it is larger than X, subtract 2 and cube that number. Repeat until you get a cube which is smaller than X. Add 1 the last number you cubed and cube that number. This will give you either the exact X you were looking for, or a very close number.
If you get to "a very close number" then you are seeking a root which will be fractional, and you need to repeat the process above with decimal places.
* .... if the cube root of 'the very close number' is Z, add .5 to Z and cube that, and continue fine-tuning the decimal places until you get so close as to make little difference to the result.
In the short scale naming system for large numbers, it is one quintillion.
Scientific notation. For example instead of writing 1,234,000,000,000 using scientific notation this number can be written as: 1.234 * 10 12 Conversely, a small number such as 0.0000056 can be written as: 5.6 * 10-6 Hope that helps.
Unfortunately there is still a difference with large numbers. The older British/European term is still used in non scientific areas, so be careful, when using the terms. New or short tradition: 100 trillion. Old or long tradition: 100 billion.
It is called long division because you write down all the numbers for each step to solve the problem and for large numbers there is a lot of writing down. There is a technique called short division which is similar but is more mental, not requiring all the long division steps. But it is usually done only when you are dividing by a small number less than 10, so it is not that useful.
70 billion can mean either 70,000,000,000 (short scale) or 70,000,000,000,000 (long scale). The short scale is more common in English-speaking countries.
It provides a short and compact notation for writing very large or very small numbers.

It is a short hand way of reducing large numbers to less digits as for example:- 1,000,000,000,000 = 1.0*1012 in scientific notation
