Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Adds the dimensions instead of multiplying.

    Correction: Volume = l × w × h.

  • Counts only three faces for surface area.

    Correction: A cuboid has six faces — three matching pairs.

Teacher tips

  • · Build cuboids from cubes before using the formula.

Parent tips

  • · Work out how many sugar cubes fit in a box.

Real-life applications

  • · Filling a fish tank, wrapping a present.
