To find the volume of a cube with an edge length of 13 inches, follow these steps:
1. Recall the formula for the volume of a cube, which is [tex]\( V = a^3 \)[/tex], where [tex]\( a \)[/tex] is the edge length of the cube.
2. Substitute the given edge length into the formula. In this case, the edge length [tex]\( a \)[/tex] is 13 inches. So, we need to calculate [tex]\( 13^3 \)[/tex].
3. When you calculate [tex]\( 13^3 \)[/tex], you get [tex]\( 13 \times 13 \times 13 \)[/tex].
4. Performing the multiplication, we get [tex]\( 13 \times 13 = 169 \)[/tex], and then [tex]\( 169 \times 13 = 2197 \)[/tex].
Thus, the volume of the cube is 2197 cubic inches.
