Given the statement:
A cube has a volume of 216 cubic centimeters
What can be concluded about the cube?
We can conclude the length of each side of the cube by solving the length.
Volume of the cube formula: A = l^3
Solution:
Solve for l in terms of A.
A = l^3
Take the cube root of both sides in order to determine the formula for l
l = cuberoot of A or A^⅓
l = (216)^⅓
l = 6 cm
It can be concluded that a cube with a volume of 216 cm^3 have a length of 6 cm on each side.
