Volume Calculation
1. The problem is to find the volume of a solid, which depends on the shape and dimensions given.
2. Identify the shape of the solid (e.g., cube, cylinder, sphere, cone, prism).
3. Use the appropriate volume formula for the shape:
- Cube: $$V = s^3$$ where $s$ is the side length.
- Rectangular prism: $$V = l \times w \times h$$ where $l$, $w$, and $h$ are length, width, and height.
- Cylinder: $$V = \pi r^2 h$$ where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height.
- Sphere: $$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$$ where $r$ is the radius.
- Cone: $$V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h$$ where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height.
4. Substitute the given measurements into the formula.
5. Calculate the numerical value to find the volume.
6. Ensure units are consistent and include units in the final answer (e.g., cubic meters).
