A cube measures 2 meters on each side.

What is the volume of the cube?

Draw yourself a square and place 2 on each side. What would you get if you multiplied the numbers?

Remember a square is equal on all sides. You cube or 4x the number of one side. Or 2^4

volume = length x width x height

= 2(2)(2) = 8

the volume of a cube is 125 cm3. what is the length of each side?

Take cube root

5

To find the volume of a cube, you need to know the length of one side (also called the edge) of the cube. In this case, the cube measures 2 meters on each side.

The formula to calculate the volume of a cube is:
Volume = (side length)^3

Substituting the given side length of 2 meters into the formula, we have:
Volume = (2 meters)^3

To simplify, we calculate the cube of 2 meters:
Volume = 2 meters × 2 meters × 2 meters = 8 cubic meters

Therefore, the volume of the cube is 8 cubic meters.
