$(a+b)^3$ $\,=\,$ $a^3+b^3+3ab(a+b)$
Let $a$ and $b$ be two variables, which are considered to represent two terms in algebraic form. The sum of the both terms is written as $a+b$ in mathematics. It is not only an algebraic expression and also a binomial. The cube of sum of the terms $a$ and $b$ or a binomial is written in the following mathematical form in mathematics.
$(a+b)^3$
The $a$ plus $b$ whole cube is equal to the $a$ cubed plus $b$ cubed plus three times the product of $a$, $b$ and sum of $a$ plus $b$.
$(a+b)^3$ $\,=\,$ $a^3+b^3+3ab(a+b)$
The cube of $a$ plus $b$ is also equal to the $a$ cubed plus $b$ cubed plus three times product of $a$ squared and $b$ plus $3$ times product of $a$ and $b$ squared.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^3$ $\,=\,$ $a^3+b^3+3a^2b+3ab^2$
In mathematics, the $a$ plus $b$ whole cubed algebraic identity is called in the following three ways.
In mathematics, the cube of the sum of two terms rule is used as a formula in the following two cases.
The cube of the sum of two terms is expanded as the sum of cubes of both terms and three times the product of both terms and sum of them.
$\implies$ $(a+b)^3$ $\,=\,$ $a^3+b^3+3ab(a+b)$
The sum of cubes of both terms and three times the product of both terms and sum of them is simplified as the cube of the sum of two terms.
$\implies$ $a^3+b^3+3ab(a+b)$ $\,=\,$ $(a+b)^3$
$(1) \,\,\,$ Find $(2x+3y)^3$
Now, take $a = 2x$ and $b = 3y$ and substitute them in the expansion of the cube of sum of two terms formula for expanding it.
$\implies$ $(2x+3y)^3$ $\,=\,$ $(2x)^3$ $+$ $(3y)^3$ $+$ $3(2x)(3y)(2x+3y)$
$\implies$ $(2x+3y)^3$ $\,=\,$ $8x^3$ $+$ $27y^3$ $+$ $18xy(2x+3y)$
$\implies$ $(2x+3y)^3$ $\,=\,$ $8x^3$ $+$ $27y^3$ $+$ $18xy \times 2x$ $+$ $18xy \times 3y$
$\implies$ $(2x+3y)^3$ $\,=\,$ $8x^3$ $+$ $27y^3$ $+$ $36x^2y$ $+$ $54xy^2$
$(2) \,\,\,$ Simplify $27l^3$ $+$ $64m^3$ $+$ $108l^2m$ $+$ $144lm^2$
Now, let’s try to simplify the given algebraic expression.
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $3^3 \times l^3$ $+$ $4^3 \times m^3$ $+$ $108l^2m$ $+$ $144lm^2$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3 \times 36 \times l^2m$ $+$ $3 \times 48 \times lm^2$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3lm(36l+48m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3lm(3 \times 12l+3 \times 16m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3lm \times 3 \times (12l+16m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3lm \times 3 \times (4 \times 3l+4 \times 4m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3lm \times 3 \times 4 \times (3l+4m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3 \times 3l \times 4m \times (3l+4m)$
$\,\,\,\,\,\,=\,\,\,$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3(3l)(4m)(3l+4m)$
Now, assume $a = 3l$ and $b = 4m$, and simplify the whole algebraic expression as a cube of sum of two terms.
$\implies$ $(3l)^3$ $+$ $(4m)^3$ $+$ $3(3l)(4m)(3l+4m)$ $\,=\,$ $(3l+4m)^3$
