The document provides information about calculating the volume of cubes and cuboids:
1) It defines volume and explains that it measures how much space an object takes up in cubic units.
2) It identifies that cubes have a cubic cross-section and cuboids have a rectangular cross-section.
3) It provides the formulas for calculating volume: for cubes, volume equals the length of a side cubed; for cuboids, volume equals the area of the base times the height.

Objectives
Students should be able to:
1. understand what is meant by the term ‘volume’
2. identify the shape of the uniformed cross-section of a cube and a cuboid. 3. calculate the volume of cube and cuboid. 4. calculate a missing dimension given the volume of the solid.
WHAT IS VOLUME? Volume is a measure of how much space an object takes up. For example, two shoe boxes together have twice the volume of a single box, because they take up twice the amount of space. The volume of solid objects is measured in cubic units.
NOTE: When calculating volume all the dimensions must be in the same units. Calculating the volume of solids with uniform cross-sections
1. Identify the shape of the cross-section.
2. Calculate the area of the shape.
3. Multiply the area of the shape with the height/length/depth of the solid.
For example:
Volume of Cube = area of square x height of cube
5cm = (l x l) x h = 5cm x 5cm x 5cm = 125cm3 5cm
Volume of Cuboid = area of rectangle x height of cuboid
6cm = (l x w) x h = 9cm x 4cm x 6cm = 216cm3 9cm

1. Calculate the volume of each solid below
A. B.
C. D.
70mm 2. Calculate the length of the side marked x if the volume of the cuboid is 144cm3.
3. The volume of the cube below is 27 cubic centimeters. What is the length of each side? Show calculations.
4. How many cubes with side measuring 2cm could fit in a carton with a volume of 120cm3? Show calculations.
5. Josh built a rectangular cardboard box 18 cm high with a square base and a volume of 2178 cm3. Then he realized he did not need a box that large, so he chopped off the height of the box reducing its volume to 1331 cm3. Was the new box cubical? Show calculations.
