Question

a cube as a volume of 1/512 cubic meter. What is the length of each side of the cube? Explain your thinking

Answer 1

First, we have to know how to get the volume of a cube.
The volume of a cube is equal to V = s^3.

Given a volume of 1/512, using the formula.
V = s^3
1/512 = s^3
s = cuberoot of 1/512
s = 1/8 meter
