<u>To tell which cubic unit of measure that should be used</u>:
⇒ we should examine the unit of the side lengths
<u>First question (a):</u>
- a rectangular prism that is 4cm by 9 cm by 2cm
⇒ must use <em>cm³ </em>as cubic unit of measure
⇒ as all sides are centimeters
⇒<u>Answer: cubic centimeters or cm³</u>
<u></u>
<u>Second question(b):</u>
- a rectangular prism that is 5m by 4m by 9m
⇒ must use <em>m³</em> as cubic unit of measure
⇒ as all sides are meters
⇒<u>Answer: cubic meters or m³</u>
<u></u>
<u>Third question(c)</u>:
- a rectangular prism that gives only two side length: 10dm, 6dm
⇒must use <em>dm³</em> as cubic unit of measure
⇒ as all of the sides given are in decimeter
⇒<u>Answer: cubic decimeter or dm³</u>
<u></u>
<u>Fourth question(d):</u>
- a cube that gives only one side length: 56mm
⇒ must use <em>mm³</em> as cubic unit of measure
⇒ as all the given sides with side lengths are in millimeters
⇒ <u>Answer: cubic millimeters or mm³</u>
<u></u>
<u>Fifth question(e):</u>
- a rectangular prism with two side length: 1m, 10m
⇒ must use <em>m³</em> as cubic unit of measure
⇒ as all given sides with side lengths are in meter
⇒<u>Answer: cubic meter or m³</u>
<u></u>
<u></u>
<em>In general</em>:
⇒ <em>when faced with these problems</em>
<em> ⇒ look to the unit of measure of the majority of the side lengths</em>
<em> ⇒ look to the unit of measure that the problem wants for the answer</em>
<u></u>
