#~~7.7" cm to 1 dec. place"#

Explanation:

#"the formula for calculating the volume of a cube is"#

#•color(white)(x)"volume "=sxxsxxs=s^3#

#"where s is the length of the side"#

#"now volume "=460" cm"^3#

#rArrs^3=460#

#"to solve for s take the "color(blue)"cube root"#

#rArrs=root(3)(460)~~7.7" cm to 1 dec. place"#
