Repeat this procedure for a 3 x 3 x 3 cube and then for a 4 x 4 x 4 cube. To find the volume a cube, multiply the length x width x height. Once you have made a spreadsheet, it will be easier to fing a pattern. To find the surface area of any cube with the same length, width, and height, divide the volume by the length of one side of a cube and multiply the answer by 6. Repeat this procedure for a 3 x 3 x 3 cube and then for a 4 x 4 x 4 cube.
Extensions Find the volume of an irregularly shaped large object.
Next, record the volume of the model using displacement. The volume of the model can be determined by subtracting the original volume from the new volume. Finally, find a scale factor between the model and the large object, and then use this scale factor and the model's volume to compute the volume of the original object.
