Volume is side X side X side.
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
\[V=s \times s \times s\]
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
S=?

That's all it gave me
OpenStudy (visarika23):
S=1/3
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
Yes. But use information from the question and plug it into the equation.

@LittlexMonster
What is the side measure?
OpenStudy (littlexmonster):
Answers it gave me 7/3 cubic in , 12cubic in , 4/9 cubic in, 4 cubic in

How did you get that?
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
Take the side and cube it.
s=1/3
V=s^3
=(1/3)^3
OpenStudy (littlexmonster):
It is multiple choice those were the choices

OpenStudy (confluxepic):
Do you have an image of the prism that contains the cube?

Yes
OpenStudy (welshfella):
can you show it?
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
Can you post it? Otherwise I won't be able to solve the question.
OpenStudy (welshfella):
The volume of the prism will depend on the number of cubes in it.
OpenStudy (confluxepic):
\[(\frac{ 1 }{ 3 })^3=\frac{ 1^3 }{ 3^3 }=\frac{ 1 }{ 27 }\]

Then multiply that by the number of cubes in the prism to get your answer.
