  1. 1. 32 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 4 × 4 × 2 = 32 cm³.

  2. 2. 126 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 3 × 7 × 6 = 126 cm³.

  3. 3. 80 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 10 × 4 × 2 = 80 cm³.

  4. 4. 150 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 3 × 10 × 5 = 150 cm³.

  5. 5. 200 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 4 × 10 × 5 = 200 cm³.

  6. 6. 48 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 6 × 4 × 2 = 48 cm³.

  7. 7. 160 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 10 × 8 × 2 = 160 cm³.

  8. 8. 48 cm³

    Volume = length × width × height. 3 × 2 × 8 = 48 cm³.

  9. 9. 212 cm²

    Three pairs of faces: 72, 16, 18. 2 × (72 + 16 + 18) = 212 cm².

  10. 10. 42 cm²

    Three pairs of faces: 6, 9, 6. 2 × (6 + 9 + 6) = 42 cm².

  11. 11. 208 cm²

    Three pairs of faces: 32, 24, 48. 2 × (32 + 24 + 48) = 208 cm².

  12. 12. 150 cm²

    Three pairs of faces: 27, 36, 12. 2 × (27 + 36 + 12) = 150 cm².

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.
