Cube Number.

In mathematics, a cube number, also called a perfect cube, or sometimes just a cube, is an integer that is the cube of an integer. For example, 27 is a cube number, since it can be written as 3 × 3 × 3.

A cubed number is a number multiplied by itself twice. For example, 2 times 2 times 2 is 8. 8 is 2 cubed. Or, 3 times 3 times 3 is 27. 27 is 3 cubed.

A cubed number is that number times itself two more times. 2 cubed is 2x2x2, for example.

5 = 5 one time

5² = 5x5, squared is a shortcut for multipling twice

5³ = 5x5x5, cubed is a shortcut for multiplying 3 times

etc, etc

Units^1 are a length

Units² are an area (like square feet in a house), in life, this is referred as 2D like on a sheet of paper.

Units³ are a volume (like cubic centimeters for an injection), in life this is 3D

2x2x2 or 3x3x3 or ...
