Enter the total volume of the cube into the Edge Length Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Edge Length.

## Edge Length Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Edge Length.

EL = V^ 1/3

• Where EL is the Edge Length
• V is the total volume of the cube

To calculate the edge length, take the cube root of the total volume of the cube.

## How to Calculate Edge Length?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Edge Length.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the total volume of the cube.
• The total volume of the cube is given as: 500.
2. Finally, calculate the Edge Length using the equation above:

EL = V^ 1/3

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

EL = 500^(1/3) = 7.937

Example Problem #2:

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total volume of the cube = 1000

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator.

EL = V^ 1/3 = ?
