Edge of small cube(a)=3 edge of large cube (A)=27 let the no of cube that can be made from large cube be n. therefore, according to question volume of big cube = volume of small cube×no. of cubes that can be made. A3=a3×n 27×27×27=3×3×3×n 19,683=27×n 19,683/27=n 729=n

let the no of cube that can be made from large cube be n.
therefore, according to question
volume of big cube = volume of small cube×no. of cubes that can be made.
A3=a3×n
27×27×27=3×3×3×n
19,683=27×n
19,683/27=n
729=n
