Volume in Cubic Centimeters

The video tutorial explains the concept of cubic units, specifically cubic centimeters, as a way to measure volume. It describes how volume is the space inside a three-dimensional figure and can be measured by counting the number of cubes that fill the space. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate the volume of a cube or prism by multiplying its length, width, and height. It also provides examples of finding volume by counting cubes in layers, emphasizing the practical application of these concepts.

What is the primary purpose of a cubic unit in measuring volume?

• To measure the weight of an object

• To measure the temperature of a substance

• To measure the length of an object

• To measure the volume or capacity of a space

How is the volume of a container determined using cubic centimeters?
