A small cube has a volume of 125 in 3.
Its side length is 1.5 inches less than a second, larger cube.
What is the volume of the larger cube? Show your work to justify.
All the edges of a cube have the same length, and the volume of a cube is the length of an edge taken to the third power. So the length of the edge of a cube with a volume of 125 is 5.
