    2 cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The volume of a cube can be found using the following formula:

    V=s^3

    where s is the length of one side. We know the volume is 8 cm^3, therefore we can substitute that value in for V.

    8 cm^3=s^3

    We want to find what the side length is. The side length is being cubed. The inverse of a cube is the cube root. Therefore, we must take the cube root of both sides, or raise both sides to the power of 1/3.

    (8 cm^3) ^1/3 = (s^3) ^1/3

    (8 cm^3) ^1/3=s

    2 cm=s

    The length of one side is 2 centimeters.

    The side length is 2 cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The volume of a cube is s^3

    V = s^3

    8 = s^3

    Take the cube root of each side

    8 ^ 1/3 = s^3 ^ 1/3

    2 = s

    The side length is 2 cm
