A "3". Example m^3 = cubic meters

area =length* length
Since area is product of 2 numbers ,we write 2 as the super-script(rather, its square e.g.cm ^2)
volume =length * breadth *height
Volume is product of 3 numbers hence we write 3(rather cube)
e.g. cm^3

All those who have answered the question so far have got the correct answer, but only anton3s has written in correctly: it's m³ or cm³ - not m3 or cm3. On most keyboards, you can get this raised three by doing Alt-252 (using the keypad).

Perhaps not suprisingly, 3.
Area is measured in units, be it metres or feet, squared (often written as ^2) eg 3m x 6m = 18m^2
Volume is measured in units cubed ie 3m x 2m x 4m = 24m^3
Hope that helps

A length can be expressed in m (meter)
An area can be expressed in m² (square meter)
A volume can be expressed in m³ (cubic meter)

That "little two" or "little three" can be unclear. I would just say "cubic meters" or "cubic inches" or whatever your units are.
