Question

The volume of the cube is 216 cubic units what is the side length

Answer 1

6 cubic units

Explanation:

The formula to find the volume of a cube is

Volume= Length*Breadth*Height

The question states that the volume of the cube is 26 cubic units.

But we need to find the side length of the cube.

To do this, we simply do the opposite of the given formula to solve for the volume of the cube:

`\sqrt[3]{216} = 6`

If the formula to find for the volume of the cube is length*breadth*height...... To solve for the side length, all we have to do is do the OPPOSITE. FIND THE CUBE ROOT OF THE VOLUME TO FIND THE SIDE.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!

Answer 2

The side length is six units.

A cube has three measurements: length, width, and height

All the measurements have to be the same.

This allows you to cube root.

The cube root of 216 is 6.

The side length of the cube is 6 units.

Check:

6 * 6 * 6 = 216.

It is correct, so our answer is proven to be correct.
