The volume of a cube is given by the formula:
V = s³ (s to the 3rd power)
Solving for s:
s = ³√V (cube root of volume)
So if the volume is 1000 cu. cm, then s is the cube root of 1000.
s = ³√1000
s = 10
So each side the cube is 10 cm.
As a double check:
10 cm x 10 cm x 10 cm = 1000 cu. cm.

V = s^3 for a cube, V = 1 only when s = 1
s = (1000)^(1/3)

Pat....the volume of a cube is v=s^3, not v=s....
L*W*H
The length of one side would therefore be 10, the cube root of 1000

V=s^3=1000^3=1,000,000,000=10^9 or billion cm^3
easier is s=10m
V=10^3=1000m^3

10 cm
length= volume to the negitive 2 square

10 cm ( I think you meant v= s to the 3rd power.)
