Hello!

The formula for volume of a cube is
V= a^(3); you are given the volume, so plug it into the formula for
V.


V= a^(3)

27= a^(3)

Take the cube root of each side:


27= a^(3)

\sqrt[3]{27} = a^(3)

3=a

Answer:
The length of each side is 3 cubic feet.

using formula v=a^3
a=v^1/5=27^1/5=3
to checking your answer
v=a^3
3^3
27
the answer for your question is 3
