Explanation:

Step1: <Formula for volume of cube>

The volume \( V \) of a cube is given by \( V = s\times s\times s=s^{3} \), where \( s \) is the side - length of the cube.

Step2: <Substitute the value of side - length>

Here, \( s = 5\) inches. So, \( V=5\times5\times5\).

Step3: <Calculate the volume>

\( 5\times5\times5 = 125\) cubic inches.

C. 125 cubic inches
