To find the length of one side of a cube when you know the volume, you can use the formula for the volume of a cube:

\[
V = s^3
\]

where \( V \) is the volume and \( s \) is the length of one side.

Given that the volume \( V \) is 27 cubic inches, we can set up the equation:

\[
s^3 = 27
\]

To find \( s \), take the cube root of both sides:

\[
s = \sqrt[3]{27}
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
s = 3 \text{ inches}
\]

Thus, the length of one side of the cube is 3 inches.
