Thank you so much but how did you get the length?

No probs!

In squares, both the sides are the same.

Hence,
Length x Breadth x Height is essentially
Length (of square) x Length (of square again) x Height

The key idea is to find the area of the base, multiplied by the height of the solid.

Hope this helps! If you have anymore questions please do ask and I'll be happy to answer! :)

It’s a “square base” of side 4 cm each.

I did not read it in time (my post was sent in 4 seconds after yours and it took the system 5 to 6 seconds to register any comment given)
