Volume of Cubes WORKSHEET

Suitable for Grades: 6th Grade, 7th Grade
CCSS: 6.G.A.2, 7.G.B.6
CCSS Description: Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths of the prism. Apply the formulas V = l w h and V = b h to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume, and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms.

Volume of Cubes WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Focus solely on finding the volume of various cuboids with this worksheet which will both support and challenge learners.

In Section A, learners will find the volume of four cuboids by first finding the area of a highlighted face before multiplying this by the third dimension in order to find its volume.

Section B, consists of four further cuboids, including a cube, for students to calculate the volume of, unguided. One question here gives measurements in cm and mm.

In Section C, learners will articulate what is wrong with a statement made about volume and within a volume calculation.

Lastly, Section D is made up of four problem solving questions including using a cuboid’s volume to find a missing length.
