well, length will only have 1 unit of length multiplied together. area will have two length multiplied together (to form something like m^2) and volume it is three (to form m^3)

example if you have 3X5cm=15cm, that's distance

3.14*(5cm)^2=3.14*5cm*5cm = 78.5cm^2 is area

volume is 5cm*5cm*5cm=75cm^3
