5th grade math - Volume of cubes and rectangular prisms

Cube has six flat faces and all angles are right angles. It is also a prism because it has the same cross-section along a length. In fact it is a rectangular prism. The formula for volume of rectangular prism is given by, Volume = length x width x height. The formula for volume of a cube is given by, Volume = side x side x side. Make sure that in both the caes, the unit of measuremet are the same. Learn methods of finding volume of cubes and rectangular prisms using the resources on this page.
