SOLUTION:

Step 1:

We are given the following:

Find the side length of a cube with a volume of 941 cubic meters.

If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Step 2:

The details of the solution are as follows:


\begin{gathered} Volume\text{ of a cube = length x length x length} \\ Now,\text{ we have that: Volume = 941 m}^3 \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} 941\text{ = l x l x l} \\ 941\text{ = l}^3 \\ cube\text{ - root both sides, we have that:} \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} l\text{ =}\sqrt[3]{941} \\ l\text{ = 9.799333566} \\ l\approx\text{ 9.8 meters \lparen to the nearest tenth\rparen} \end{gathered}

CONCLUSION:

The final answer is:


l\approx\text{ 9.8 meters \lparen to the nearest tenth\rparen}
