We're looking for the height of the tower. To know that, we need to know the height of each individual block (then multiply that by the total number of blocks). The blocks are cubes, so their length, width, and height are all the same. The volume of a cube is V=lwh, or just V=s^3, where s is the side length. We're given the volume of one block, so to find the side length, just find the cube root of the volume as was done above. Then multiply it by the number of blocks to find the total height of the tower. Does that make more sense?
