Area is defined as the extent of a 2-dimensional surface enclosed within a boundary. In contrast, volume is the amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by an object. As a result, area and volume have different values. For example, a square is a 2-d shape, so its volume = 0, but its area = length x length. Similarly, a cube's surface area = 6 x length2 whereas it's volume = length3.
