3 cubed or 3 to the third power means to multiply the base (3) by itself 3 times. When people refer to cubes thry are referring to the 3 power of something. When people refer to squares they may be referring to the 2nd power of something. Also, 3 cubed=27. 3 times 3 times 3.

it's exponents.

you have a number, and then a smaller number above it.

you multipy the bigger number by itself that many times.

say if i had 3 to the power of 5.

that means 3 times 3 times 3 times 3 times 3.

Hope I helped! :)
