The solid shown below is made up of twenty-seven 1-cm cubes. Find the volume of the solid.
Method 1
Volume of one 1-cm cube = 1 x 1 x 1 cm³ = 1 cm³
Volume of twenty-seven 1 cm cubes = 27 x 1 cm³ = 27 cm³
The volume of the cube is 27 cm³
Method 2
Volume of cube = 3 x 3 x 3 cm³ = 27 cm³
The volume of the cube is 27 cm³
