Answer:

192 in³

Explanation:

The volume of a cube is represented by raising one side length to the 3rd power.

4 x 4 x 4 = 64

64 is the volume of the first box.

The second box is 3 times the value of the third box, so the equation for the third box is:

64 x 3 = 192

Answer: 192

Explanation:

To find the volume of a shape, we multiply the length by the width by the height. Since this is a cube, we know that they are all 4, so we do 4 times 4 times 4. We get 64. SInce we know that Cassie needs a cube with a volume that is 3 times of the previous volume, 64, we multiply 64 by 3. The answer is 192.
