Please help! 1. A good way to remember a mathematical concept is to explain it to someone else. Suppose that your younger sister, who is in eighth grade, is having trouble understanding why square units are used to measure area, but cubic units are needed to measure volume. How can you explain this to her in a way that will make it easy for her to understand and remember the correct units to use?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yes, is what I'd say :|, or the Area units include 2 dimensions, the Volume ones include 3
