Answer: 343 in³
Explanation: In this problem, we're asked to find the volume of a cube.
It's important to understand that a cube is a type of rectangular prism and the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is shown below.
<em>Volume = length × width × height</em>
In a cube however, the length, width, and height are all the same. So we can use the formula side × side × side instead.
So the formula for the volume of a cube is side × side × side or s³.
So to find the volume of the given cube, since each side has a length of 7 inches, we can plug this information into the formula to get (7 in.)³ or (7 in.)(7 in.)(7 in).
7 x 7 is 49 and 49 x 7 is 343.
So we have 343 in³.
So the volume of the given cube is 343 in³.
