The volume of a cube or space a cube occupies is calculated by multiplying the length, height, and width. Additionally, because in a cube all sides are equal in length, the formula for volume is V= [tex]s^{3}[/tex]. According to this, if the side length is 8 inches the volume can be represented as [tex]V = 8^{3}[/tex] or V= 8 · 8 · 8 because the symbol · represents multiplication. Also, this can be solved as V = 512 cubic inches. This makes the following options correct: [tex]8^{3}[/tex] and 8 · 8 · 8.
