VOLUME OF CUBE

VOLUME OF CUBE -


In a cube, length = breadth = height = a units (say)

Volume of a cube of an edge a units in length

  Volume of cube (V)  = Length (l) X Breadth (b) X Height (h)

                                  =  a units X a units X a units

                                  = (a X a X a) cubic units

                                  =  a³ cubic units

measurement

Volume of a cube (V) = (Length of an edge)³

Hence V = a³, V = volume, and a = length of a side of a cube

measurement

Example.1) Let's say you have a cube with a side length of 5 centimeters. To find its volume, you would use the formula-

Ans.) 

Volume = s³

Volume = (5 cm)³

Volume = 5 cm × 5 cm × 5 cm

Volume = 125 cubic centimeters

So, the volume of this cube is 125 cubic centimeters.     (Ans.)

In this example, the formula for the volume of a cube was used, and the given side length (s) was cubed to find the total volume. The volume represents the amount of space enclosed within the cube.
