Question

Bryan is making a wooden cube to hold his little sisters jewelry.The volume of the cube is 512 in.3. What is the length of one side of the jewelry box?

Answer 1

The length of one side of the jewelry box is 8 inches

Explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cube is equal to

`V=b^(3)`

where

b is the length side of the cube

In this problem we have

`V=512\ in^3`

substitute in the equation and solve for b

`512=b^(3)`

so

`b=\sqrt[3]{512}`

`b=8\ in`
