Volume tells you the amount of space an object or a liquid takes up. How do you calculate it? To find the volume of a rectangular object, you can use the formula:
Volume = length × width × height.
Imagine a chicken bouillon cube that is 1cm × 1cm × 1cm.
Using the volume formula:
Volume = length × width × height
Volume = 1cm × 1cm × 1cm
Volume = 1cm³
So the volume of the bouillon cube is 1cm³, or 1 cubic centimeter (cc).
