Abacus steps to solve Cube root of 474,552
(Answer is 78)
"1st group number" is the left most numbers in the 3-digits groups of the given number for cube root calculation. Number of groups is the number of digits of the Cube root.
474,552 -> (474|552): 474 is the 1st group number. The root digits is 2.
