Math Problem Statement
Find the volume of the figure. Round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. The side lengths are each 3 meters.
Solution
To find the volume of a cube, we use the formula:
where is the length of each side of the cube. Here, each side is given as .
Substitute into the formula:
