Question 1014860: Jerry built a 3-inch cube to hold his marble. he wants to build a cube with a volume 6 times larger. How much will each edge measure? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3 inch cube is 3^3=27 cu in volume
volume 6 times larger is 27*6=162 cu in.
cube root of 162=5.45 inches.
cube the edge to get the volume
cube root of the volume to get the edge.
