Mike is building a square hope chest for his daughter who is getting married this summer. The total volume of the box is 125 feet cubed. What are the dimensions of the hope chest?

Each of the side measures 5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is L^3

It is also important to state that since it's a cube box, all the sides are equal in length.

Now that we have a volume of L^3, all we need do is to find a number in which when multiplied by itself three times consecutively, it gives 125 I. e the length of a side is simply L

Mathematically, we simply need to find the cube root of 125. The correct answer that fits into this is 5

Thus, our answer is 5ft.
