tabia stores her hair bands in a cube shaped container. the cube has a volume of 64 cubic inches. What is the lenght of the edges of the cube?

The length of the edge of the cube = 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets describe the cube

- It has 6 faces all of them are squares

- It has 8 vertices

- It has 12 equal edges

∵ The volume of any formal solid = area of the base * height

∵ The base of the cube is a square

∴ Area base = L * L = L² ⇒ L is the length of the edge of it

∵ All edges are equal in length

∴ Its height = L

∴ The volume of the cube = L² * L = L³

* Now we have the volume and we want to find the

length of the edges

∵ Its volume = 64 inches³

∴ 64 = L³

* Take cube root to the both sides

∴ ∛64 = ∛ (L³)

∴ L = 4 inches

* The length of the edge of the cube = 4 inches
