Question

The side of a cube is 10 cm. What is its volume?
A. 100 cm2
B. 100 cm3
C. 1000 cm2
D. 1000 cm3

Answer 1

We will use the volume of the cube formula for finding the volume

Complete step by step solution:
The side of a cube is given as 10 cm.

Let the side of a cube be ‘a’
a = 10 cm (given in the problem)
The formula for the volume of the cube is given by:
The volume of the cube = (Side of the cube)3
By putting the value of the side of the cube in the above formula:
Volume of the cube = ${\left( {10} \right)^3}$cm3

Volume of the cube = 1000 cm3

Hence, option (D) is correct.

Note: In this type of question, it is very simple to find the volume. We just have to use the formula for the of any shape for example in this problem we have to find the volume of the cube. Just put the value of the side of the cube in the formula to get the answer.
