Question

If one side of a cube is 15m in length,find its volume

Answer 1

`V = 3375~m^(3)`

Explanation:

The formula of the volume of a cube is
`V = a^(3)` where "a" would correspond to the length of an edge/side/height/etc.

If we insert our value into the formula, we get the following result:

`V = a^(3)`

`V = 15m^(3)`

`V = 3375~m^(3)~(cubic~meters)`

Answer 2

We can find the volume of a prism using the formula shown.

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Notice that our prism is a cube. Since the length, width, and height of a cube are all equal, we can find the volume of the cube my multiplying side × side × side or s³.

Notice that we have a side length of 15 m so we can plug this into our formula for the volume of a prism.

Volume = S³

(15 m)³

3,375 m³.
