v=s^3
v=(3.2m)^3
v= 28.8 m^3

Cubes
Thank you for your response. After I posted I went back and redid the problem, and I came up with that answer also. Except shouldnt there be a
number 3 at the top of the answer? like this: 32.768^3 (?)

Thanks again

3.2 m is the length of one side of the cube.

The number "3" is the exponent Or power, you raise the number 3.2 to.

So, 3.2 to the power 3 is the same as saying:
3.2 X 3.2 X 3.2.
