Answer:
3. 1/9 feet^3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the volume of one cube.
The volume of a cube can be found using the following formula:
V=s^3
We know that s, the side length is 1/3 feet. Therefore, we can substitute 1/3 ft in for s.
V= (1/3 ft)^3
Evaluate the exponent.
1/3 ft^3
=1/3 ft * 1/3 ft* 1/3 ft
=1/9 ft^2*1/3 ft
= 1/27 ft^3
V= 1/27 ft^3
Now find the volume of 3 cubes. We know the volume of one cube is 1/27 ft^3, therefore we can multiply 1/27 ft^3 by 3.
1/27 ft^3 * 3
Multiply 1/27 and 3.
1/27 * 3/1
=(1*3)/(27*1)
=3/27
=1/9
V= 1/9 ft^3
The volume of 3 cubes is 1/9 cubic feet, and choice 3 is correct.
