The calculated volume of the larger cube is 1/36 cubic yards

How to determine the volume of the larger cube

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Small cubes = 6

Side length of small cube = 1/6

The volume of a cube is the length of one of its sides cubed.

So, we have

Volume of each small cube is (1/6)³ = 1/216 cubic yards.

Since there are 6 small cubes in the larger cube, then the volume of the larger cube is

Volume = 6 * 1/216

Volume = 1/36 cubic yards.

Hence, the volume of the larger cube is 1/36 cubic yards

Question

Each of the small cubes in this larger cube has edges that are 1/6 yd long what is the volume of the larger cube if there are 6 small cubes in it
