A cube is a special rectangular solid where all three dimensions are equal. Its volume formula is:
\[V = s^3\]
Find the volume of a cube whose sides each measure 4 centimeters.
Correct Answer
64 cm³
Explanation
Substitute \(s = 4\) into the formula \(V = s^3\):
\[V = s^3 = (4)^3 = 4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64 \text{ cm}^3\]
The volume of the cube is 64 cm³. Note that a cube is just a rectangular solid with \(l = w = h = s\), so \(V = lwh = s \cdot s \cdot s = s^3\).
