Volume
Volume is the amout of space that an object takes up.
Cube
A cube is a solid 3-D figure with six congruent square faces.
To find volume of cube you use the formula; L*W*H
(Lenght*Width*Height)
For example:
The length of a cube is 5in.
The Width of the cube is 5in.
The Height of the cube is 5in.
(L*W*H)
5in*5in*5in=125in^3
5in^3
Different volume formulas
cube = a 3
rectangular prism = a b c
irregular prism = b h
cylinder = b h = pi r 2 h
pyramid = (1/3) b h
cone = (1/3) b h = 1/3 pi r 2 h
sphere = (4/3) pi r 3
ellipsoid = (4/3) pi r1 r2 r3
Examples:
Pi=3.14
r=2
h=6
3.14*2^2*6= 23.66
h=5
L=3
W=7
5*3*7=105

You need to review the definition of a cube. You seem to be talking about rectangular prisms.

Hiii Adewiiaaa-chaaaaaaaaan~~<3
Uhm, in the middle you wrote "5in*5in*5in=125in^3"
Shouldn't it not be cubed because you already used 5^3?

You should discuss why we multiply and why the units of volume are cubed.
Can you pull out some the excess space in your page to make it easier to read?
