A cardboard box is in the shape of a cube that has a volume of 400 cubic inches.

To find the length of one side of the box, s, in inches, Clark solves the equation s cubed = 400
What is The length of one side of the box in inches

1 answer

To find the length of one side of the cardboard box (s), we need to solve the equation \( s^3 = 400 \).

To do this, take the cube root of both sides:

\[ s = \sqrt[3]{400} \]

Now, we can calculate \( \sqrt[3]{400} \):

\[ s \approx 7.368 \]

Therefore, the length of one side of the box is approximately 7.37 inches.
