Question

1. What is the volume of each of the five colors in a 3-inch cubed notepad? Assume each color has the same number of sheets.

Answer 1

The volume of the cubed notepad is calculated by the formula

$V=s^3$

if the side of the notepad is 3in claculate the volume

$\begin{gathered} V=(3in)^3 \\ V=27in^3 \end{gathered}$

To find the volume of each you divide by 5 the total volume to find the volume for each color

$\frac{27}{5}in^3=5.4in^3$

Each color has a volume of 5.4 cubed inches.
