Question

Use the formula V = s³, where V is the volume and s is the edge length of the cube, to solve this problem. A cube-shaped container has an edge length of 2/3 feet. What is the volume of the container?

Answer 1

The volume of the container is 0.3 feet³

Explanation:

The formula for volume is

V = s³

Putting the value of s

V = (2/3)³

V = 8/27

V = 0.3 feet³

Answer 2

`(8)/(27)` cubic feet

Explanation:

We are given the formula for the volume of a cube:
`V = s^3`

where V is the volume and s is the edge length of the cube which is actually 2/3 feet.

To find the volume, we just need to substitute the given value of the edge length in the formula to get:

Volume of cube =
`s^3 = ( \frac {2} {3} ) ^ 3 = \frac{8} {27}` cubic feet
