Volume of Cubes and Cuboids - T2 - 1(a)/(c)

			We know that volume can be considered in terms of layers. The volume is: The number of cubes in 1 layer × The number of layers. In the example on "Cubes and Volume" we saw that this shape has 12 squares per layer, and three layers. Volume = 12 × 3 = 36


Just like for flat shapes, the lengths of the edges is related to the volume!! The edges of the cuboid have a length 4cm, a width 3cm and a height 3cm. The area of 1 layer = 12cm². The volume = 36cm³. The link? You multiply the length, width and height to get the volume!! So we can say: The volume of a cuboid: = length × width × height


			Remember that for a cube, the length = the width = the height, so we can say: Volume of a cube: = length × length × length.
