The answer is b.

Volume of cube is calculated by using formula V = a^3 where a is edge length. Volume of cube directly depends on edge length.

a. is not an answer because in formula we see that volume (edge length) which means that volume depends on edge length and not other way around.

c. is not an answer because it isn't equal to edge length but from the given formula it is equal 200 cubic centimeters.
