Question

How do you find the volume of a square of 8 by 8

Answer 1

You can’t find the volume of a two dimensional figure, BUT you CAN find the area and the perimeter of a two dimensional figure.

The formula for finding the area of a two- dimensional figure is Length times Width, or LxW.
So we would multiply 8 times 8 to get an area of 64 square units.

The formula for finding the perimeter of an object is 2 times Length plus 2 times Width, or 2(L)+2(W).
So we would multiply 2 times 8 to get 16.
Then we would do the same thing with the other 8 to get 16.
Then we would add 16+16 to get a final perimeter of 32.

I hope I helped! :-)

Answer 2

Hi there!

You can't find volumes of 2 dimensional overs, like squares, since there are only two dimensions, but you can find the area of the square.

To find the area of a square, we multiply the length and width together.

8 × 8 = 64

So, the area of this square would be 64 units squared.

Hope this helps!
