Volume is measured in "cubic" units. The volume
of a figure is the number of cubes required to fill it completely, like
blocks in a box.
Volume of a cube = side times side times side. Since
each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one
side cubed.
If a square has one side of 4 inches, the volume would
be 4 inches times 4 inches times 4 inches, or 64 cubic inches. (Cubic
inches can also be written in3.)
Be sure to use the same units for all measurements.
You cannot multiply feet times inches times yards, it doesn't make
a perfectly cubed measurement.
The volume of a rectangular prism is the length on
the side times the width times the height. If the width is 4 inches, the
length is 1 foot and the height is 3 feet, what is the volume?
CORRECT.... 4 inches is the same as 1/3 feet.
Volume is 1/3 feet times 1 foot times 3 feet = 1 cubic foot (or 1 cu.
ft., or 1 ft3).
I hope it could be helpful FOR U.
