The measure of the amount of space that a solid or matter occupies is referred to as the volume.
It is a quantity for 3 dimensional objects, that have the SI unit of m^3, read as cubic meter, although there are also other measurements for volume such as, liter, fluid, ounce, gallon, ft^3, cm^3, in^3, etc.
In order to find the volume of a specific object, there are different formulas that are being used, although it may vary on the objects composition, such as the length and shape.
A common formula for the volume of a sphere can be illustrated as:
V = 4/3 πr^3
V = volume
r = radius
