The fastest way to measure the volume of a cube-shaped table is to:
**Measure one side with a ruler, and multiply that number by itself three times.**
Since all sides of a cube are equal in length, you only need to measure one side and then use that measurement to calculate the volume using the formula \( V = s^3 \), where \( s \) is the length of one side. This method is quicker than measuring each dimension separately since a cube has all sides of equal length.
