Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre. The volume of a container is generally understood to be the capacity of the container; i. e., the amount of fluid (gas or liquid) that the container could hold, rather than the amount of space the container itself displaces.

We don't use units like triangular prism feet or spherical kilometers because the three axes don't make a "corner" of any other shape other than a cube.

Glad I was able to help!!
