I have 27. Who has 4x8? 32

5. Review
Yesterday, we discuss about
volume of cube. What is the formula
used in finding the volume of cube? The formula in finding the volume of
cube is
Very Good! V= s x s x s or V= 𝑠 3
I have a cube here. It’s side is 3cm.
What should be its volume?
(Pupils solve for the volume of a cube)

V= s x s x s
V=3cm x 3cm x 3cm
V= 9 cm x 3 cm
