Volume of cuboid


A cuboid is a 3 dimensional shape.

Therefore to work out the volume we need to know 3 measurements.




Look at this shape. There are 3 different measurements:

Height, width, Length


The volume is found using the formula:

Volume = Height × Width × Length

OR

V= h × w × l

OR

V= hwl

TIPS! : It doesn't really matter which one is length, width or height, so long as you multiply all three together.
