Cube of 14
14 cubed equals 2744. Cubes show up in volume calculations — a cube with side 14 holds 2744 cubic units.
Cubes carry the fingerprint of their base. The final digit of 2744 is 4 — always the cube of the base's own final digit. Divided by 9, a cube only ever leaves 0, 1 or 8, and 2744 leaves 8. The volume picture explains the name: a 14 × 14 floor of unit cubes holds 196 of them, and 14 such layers stack to 2744 — the shape itself is the exponent at work. The gaps grow like a parabola: 2744 − 2197 = 547, which is 3 × 14 × 13 + 1 — each new layer wider than the last. Even base, even cube: 2744 keeps the parity of 14.
