![The problem states:
"The volume of a cube is 1000 cm³. Find the length of one side. Round to the nearest whole number."
Instructions:
- Only type the value of the length of the side.
To solve this, recall that the volume \( V \) of a cube with side length \( s \) is given by the formula:
\[ V = s^3 \]
Given that the volume is 1000 cm³, we need to find \( s \):
\[ s^3 = 1000 \]
Taking the cube root of both sides:
\[ s = \sqrt[3]{1000} = 10 \]
Thus, the length of one side of the cube is 10 cm.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F40ac1924-da82-497b-85f4-398551157699%2Fb2e64e5d-f83d-42cf-b406-793b83456b17%2Fh85xg7q.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
