If you mean that the volume is 32 cm^3, then the missing length is 4 cm.

The volume of a cuboid is length * width * height.

Setting up the equation would be: 32=l(2)(4) and solving for l would equal 4 cm.

Answer:

4 cm

Explanation:

to find the volume you multiply the lengths of all three sides together:

let 'm' = missing side

32 = 4·2·m

32 = 8m

m = 4
