How to calculate cm³

Volume in cm³ = length × width × height in centimeters. A 10 × 20 × 30 cm box has a volume of 6,000 cm³.

Can cm³ be converted to cm?

Only when the shape is known. For a cube, side length = cube root of volume. The cube root of 1,000 cm³ is 10 cm.

cm³, mL and cc

1 cm³ equals 1 mL and 1 cc. One cubic meter equals 1,000,000 cm³.
