Answer:

7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cube with:

Volume, V = 343 cubic centimeters

Recall that for a cube of side length, s:

Volume = s³

Therefore:


s^3=343

We solve the equation for s.


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[3]{s^3}=\sqrt[3]{343^{}} \\ s=7\text{ cm} \end{gathered}

The side length of the cube is 7cm.
