Question 185393
    what will happen to the volume of a cube, if its edges are halved?\
.
Let x = length of an edge of the original cube
.
Volume of original cube = x^3
.
if the edge was halved:
length of edge = x/2
.
Volume of halved cube = (x/2)^3 = x^3/2^3 = x^3/8
.
Therefore, the answer is "the volume would be 1/8 th of the original volume".
