Since the volume of a cube is equal to the length cubed,
V= x^{3]. Substitute 125 for V giving you
125=x^3. Take the cubed root of 125 to give you
x=5. To find the area of a side, you have to take the length and square it. Therefore,
A= x^(2). Substitute 5 for x giving you
A=5^2. Evaluate the equation to give you
A=25.
