The volume of one of the small cubes in the image below is calculated as: A. 1/64 cubic inches.
What is the volume of a cube?
Volume of a cube = l * w * h, where l is length, w is width, and h is height.
Or Volume = s³, where s is the side length.
The missing diagram attached below shows a right rectangular prism that has 24 small cubes.
Volume of the right rectangular prism = l * w * h
= 1/2 * 3/4 * 1
= 3/8 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of one of the cubes would be:
V = volume of the rectangular prism / number of small cubes it comprises
V = 3/8 / 24
V = 3/8 * 1/24
V = 1/8 * 1/8
V = 1/64 cubic inches. (Option A).
