Calculate the volume of cuboids
This topic is intended to help you learn or revise how to calculate the volume of cuboids. A cuboid is a 3 dimensional regular solid with rectangular faces - think brick or fat book.
The volume of cuboids is calculated by multiplying width by length by height, and the answer is given in units cubed. To clarify, the distinction between a cuboid and a cube is that a cube is a special sub-set of cuboids where all the faces are square.
So, in the first question from the lesson we have a cuboid with a length of 6 cm, a width of 2 cm and a height of 2 cm. The volume of this cuboid is:
6 x 2 x 2 = 24 cm³
