Answer:

The formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 Bh. This means 1/3 the Area of the base times the height. You can calculate the area by multiply length and width. Area is two-dimensional. Multiplying height by it adds another dimension. When writing area, we say units squared. When writing volume, we say units cubed, because it is three dimensional.
