Answer:

Volume = (3)/(128)ft^3

Explanation:

Given

$Length = 1\ cube$

$Width = 3\ cubes$

$Height = 4\ cubes$

$1\ cube = (1)/(8)ft$

Required

The volume of the cube

Start by calculating the dimension in ft

$Length = 1\ cube$

Length = 1 * (1)/(8)ft

Length = (1)/(8)ft

$Width = 3\ cubes$

Width = 3 * (1)/(8)ft

Width = (3)/(8)ft

$Height = 4\ cubes$

Height = 4 * (1)/(8)ft

Height = (1)/(2)ft

So, the volume is:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Volume = (1)/(8)ft * (3)/(8)ft * (1)/(2)ft

Volume = (1)/(8) * (3)/(8) * (1)/(2)ft^3

Using a calculator, we have:

Volume = (3)/(128)ft^3
