Question

Randy bought a TV and the box it came in is a cube. What is the volume of the TV box?

Answer 1

Solution

Step 1

Write an expression for the volume of a cube

$\begin{gathered} V=a^3 \\ \text{where} \\ V\text{= Volume of the cube} \\ a\text{ = length=4ft} \end{gathered}$

Step 2

Substitute in the values and find the volume of the cube

$\begin{gathered} V=4^3 \\ V=64ft^3 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the volume of the TV box is 64ft³.
