Math 10: Blog post #5

This week, we learned about surface area and volume on cubes.  I’ve always had difficulty in my previous years, trying to figure out volume.  I came to the realization this year, that you multiply the length, width and height together, and you have the volume.  It’s so much simpler this year than I remember from previous years, and it makes so much more sense to me.  I used to always forget something such as putting it to the cube, for example, 8 inches³.  I would simply write 8 inches, and I would get marks off for it.  I look forward to learning more about surface area of different shapes, like spheres, for example, is one of the three dimensional shapes I’m interested in learning about.
