Trick 1. 

Cube root for 2406104:

Number         Split as
2406104       2406 | 104
Split the number keeping the last 3 digit aside
`13^{ 3 } ` (2197) < 2406 < `14^{ 3 } ` (2744)
Choose the smaller number (13) as the 1st Part
If the cube ends in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
The no. would end in 1 8 7 4 5 6 3 2 9 0
   13     |       4
Ans. 134
