Although each property requires different calculations, they all rely on the same fundamental principle: taking measurements and using those measurements to derive a numerical value. When finding volume, you are measuring the amount of space that an object occupies.

To calculate the volume of a box, you need to know its height, width, and depth. You can find the volume by multiplying these three dimensions together. This formula works regardless of the units you are using (e.g. meters, feet), he method is the same - just make sure your units match up!
