How could you estimate the volume of a cereal box in cubic centimeters?

Since it's rectangular, you simply need to multiply the length, width, and height.
This will give you the volume.
I guess you know what a centimeter looks like, and what 10 centimeters look like.
Personally, I would probably use my hand, and check how many times the distance between my thumb and index fits on the box, since it's about 15 centimeters. Either that, or the width of my thumb, which is about 2 centimeters.
But with the thumb you're going to be spending a while, so you might as well take the 1 minute and go look through your stuff to find your measuring tape.
I think that approximations are very easy to do though, so you don't even need that. Just say that the box has about 50 centimeters in height, 30 centimeters in length, and 10 centimeters in width.
So that gives you 15000 centimeters cube, which sounds very close to the actual volume.

Is volume measured in cubic centimeters?
Yes there could be any cubic measurement for volume Yes.
Do you use cubic centimeters to measure volume?
Yes, Cubic Centimeters or (cc) is one way of measuring volume. However it isn't the only means of measuring volume. You could conceivably measure volume in terms of any unit used to describe linear distance (i.e.inch,meters,millimeters....)
What is the surface area of a cereal box if the volume is 100 cubic cm?
The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions or the area of the sides.The smallest area it could have is 129.266 square cm, but it could beany number greater than that.
What is the capacity of a shape with a volume of 4000 centimeters cubed?
In terms of fluid capacity, a shape with a volume of 4,000 cm3 could hold up to about 1.056 US gallons.
Could 30 cubic centimetres cover a piece of land of 225 centimeters squared?
No,You are confusing volume measurements with area measurements.You could ask could 3- cubic centimeters of a liquid disperse to cover an area of 225 square centimeters. This then is a science question that deals with the properties of the liquid and the surface in question.

What should be used to measure the volume of an ice cream cone?
You could measure volume in cubic centimeters.
What piece of equipment is used to measure cereal?
Cereal could be weighed on scales, or on a weighbridge while still on the lorry, or measured by volume as in so many sacks.
Do you use cubic centimeters to measure volume?
Yes, Cubic Centimeters or (cc) is one way of measuring volume. However it isn't the only means of measuring volume. You could conceivably measure volume in terms of any unit used to describe linear distance (i.e.inch,meters,millimeters....)
What is the radius of a cylinder with a volume of 500 cm3?
It could be any positive number of centimeters. The volume depends not only on the radius, but also on the height of the cylinder.
What is volume of the liquids could be measured in?
Cubic meters, liters, cubic centimeters, depending on the amount of liquid.
What is the surface area of a cereal box if the volume is 100 cubic cm?
The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions or the area of the sides.The smallest area it could have is 129.266 square cm, but it could beany number greater than that.
Why the unit of volume is in cubic centimeter?
Not always in cubic centimeters. It could be in cubic meters, liters, and so forth.
How many millimeters equal 16cm3?
1000 cubic millimeters = 1 cubic centimeter 16000 cubic millimeters = 16 cubic centimeters 1 cm = 10 mm 16cm = 160 mm Millimeters are distance. Cubic centimeters is volume. You can convert volume to volume and length to length, but not length to volume nor volume to length. I gave you the conversions I could...

What could the length height and width be of a cuboid that has a volume of 30cubic centimeters?
It could be: 5cm by 3cm by 2cm because 5*3*2 = 30 cubic cm
