Question:

The volume of a cube is given by V = s^3, where s is the length of a side. Find the length of a side of a cube if the volume is 800 cm^3. Round the answer to three decimal places

Answer:
The volume of a cube is given by V+=+s%5E3
Here it is given that, V = 800 cm^3

So +s%5E3+=+800+

==> s = cuberoot of 800

==> s = 9.2811094

==> s = 9.281 cm ( up to three decimal places.)


Hope you found the explanation useful.
