Volume describes the amount of space a 3D shape takes up.
To calculate the volume of a cube/cuboid, we multiply the length by the width by the height.
v = l x w x h
We usually measure volume in mm³, cm³ or m³
Let's have a go!
What is the volume of this cube?
Each of the sides measure 5 cm
To calculate the volume we multiply l x w x h
As the sides are all 5 cm in length, the calculation will be 5 x 5 x 5 (v = l x w x h)
5 x 5 x 5 = 125
The unit of measure is cm³
The volume is 125 cm³
Now, why don't you have a go at a few questions?
