Question

An ice cube tray holds 12 ice cubes. Each cube is 5 cm. what is the volume of all 12 cubes?

Answer 1

Hello!

To find the volume of one ice cube, you'll need to find the length, width, and height. In the question, it states that each cube is 5cm. So, 5cm will be the length, width, and height. So you'll need to multiply 5 three times (5*5*5) ---> (25*5) ---> (125).

The volume, V, of one ice cube is 125cm³

Now to find the total volume of all of the cubes, you'll need to multiply 125 by 12. After doing so, you'll get a volume of...

V=1500cm³

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Cube is length of one side cubed (or to the third power)
This one side is 5 cm which means it's volume is 125cm^3 or cubic centimeters.
Multiply 125 * 12 to get the volume of all 12 cubes combined.
(1500 cubic centimeters)
