Question

A cube has a volume of 216 cubic inches. What is the length of each edge of the cube?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Each side is 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is not how to do the question. The problem is how to get your calculator to do the question.

V = s^3

s = ?

V = 216

So what you need is the cube root of 216

s^3 = 216

cube root(s^3) = cube root(216)

s = cube root 216

Your calculator should have a y^x or x ^y key.

Put in 216

Press the y^x key or the x^y key

Put in 0.33333333333

You should get something like 5.999999 which you should round to 6.
