1
Use the formula: Volume = length × breadth × height to find the volume of cuboids!
l = 4 cm, b = 3 cm, h = 2 cm → V =
24 cu cm
60 cu cm
150 cu cm
l = 6 cm, b = 3 cm, h = 2 cm → V =
150 cu cm
120 cu cm
36 cu cm
l = 6 cm, b = 6 cm, h = 6 cm (cube) → V =
60 cu cm
216 cu cm
72 cu cm
l = 5 cm, b = 6 cm, h = 3 cm → V =
90 cu cm
216 cu cm
120 cu cm
l = 10 cm, b = 5 cm, h = 3 cm → V =
150 cu cm
90 cu cm
216 cu cm

Count the unit cubes to find the volume! (Each unit cube = 1 cubic unit)
A 3×3×3 cube → Volume =
27 cubic units
8 cubic units
16 cubic units
A 3×3×2 cuboid → Volume =
8 cubic units
16 cubic units
18 cubic units
A 2×3×1 arrangement → Volume =
6 cubic units
18 cubic units
27 cubic units
A 4×4×1 flat arrangement → Volume =
6 cubic units
24 cubic units
16 cubic units
A 2×2×2 cube → Volume =
6 cubic units
18 cubic units
8 cubic units
