Answer: 9.99 inches

Explanation:

Given: The volume of a cube is
V = s^3, where s is the length of one edge of the cube.

If the volume of the cube =
999\ in^3

Then, substitute V = 999 in the above formula , we get


s^3=999

Now, taking cube root on the both the sides, we get


s=\sqrt[3]{999}=9.99666555\approx9.99

Hence, the edge length for each cube = 9.99 inches.
