If you make the initial cube edge length $\"L\"$ , the original cube volume is $\"L%5E3\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "Increasing the side length by $\"%221%25%22\"$ , the new side length would be $\"1.01L\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( "and the new volume would be
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%281.01L%29%5E3=1.01%5E3L%5E3=1.030301L%5E3=%22103.0301%25%22%2AL\"$ .
\n" ); document.write( "That would mean a volume increase of $\"highlight%28%223.0301%25%22%29\"$ . \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
