To find the total volume of \(1.5 \times 10^6\) sugar cubes, you can use the volume of a single sugar cube, which is about 4.9 ml.

The calculation will be:

\[ \text{Total volume} = \text{Number of sugar cubes} \times \text{Volume of each sugar cube} \]

\[ \text{Total volume} = 1.5 \times 10^6 \text{ cubes} \times 4.9 \text{ ml/cube} \]

Calculating that:

\[ 1.5 \times 4.9 = 7.35 \]

Now, we also need to account for the exponent:

\[ \text{Total volume} = 7.35 \times 10^6 \text{ ml} \]

Thus, the total volume of \(1.5 \times 10^6\) sugar cubes is \(7.35 \times 10^6\) ml.

Therefore, the correct response is:

7.35×10⁶ ml
