Question 10 of 20
Which unit of measure would be appropriate for the volume of a cube with an
edge length of 5 centimeters?
A. Centimeters
B. Meters
C. Cubic centimeters
D. Square centimeters

Answer 1

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

The edge length of a cube is 5 cm.

We need to find the volume of the cube.

The formula for the volume of a cube is given by :

`V=a^3`

Put a = 5 cm in above formula

`V=(5)^3\\\\=125\ cm^3`

Hence, cubic centimeters is the appropriate unit for measuring the volume of a cube.
