Question

1. a wooden crate measures 5 feet along each edge: what is the crates volume in cubic feet?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the shape

The crate is a cube (since all edges are equal).

Step2: Recall the volume formula for a cube

The volume \( V \) of a cube is \( V = s^3 \), where \( s \) is the length of an edge.

Step3: Substitute the value of \( s \)

Here \( s = 5 \) feet. So \( V=5^3\).

Step4: Calculate \( 5^3 \)

\( 5^3=5\times5\times5 = 125\).

Answer:

125 cubic feet
