Solution:

The volume of a cube is given by the following formula:

where a is the side length. Then, if V = 8/63, we have that:

Solving for a, we get:

$((8)/(64))^{(1)/(3)}\text{ = a}$

this is equivalent to say:

$a\text{ = }(1)/(2)=\text{ 0.5}$

then, we can conclude that the side length is:

$a\text{ = 0.5}$
