Have you studied the term Cube Root? Since you are home schooling, this would be good to look up on the internet. Some numbers are perfect cubes. For your answer you need only to find the cube root of positive 27. Just like 2*2*2=2^3=8 because 8 is a perfect cube. Also and this could be a useful hint; in a typical multiplication grid that you may have completed long ago exist a set of perfect squares and a set of perfect cubes.
