About this resource
Description
Volume is the number of unit cubes that fit inside a solid, and this volume of shapes worksheet gives fifth graders three clean ways to practice finding it. Every figure on the page is a right rectangular prism with its three edge lengths labeled, so students can apply V = l x w x h directly, write the product, and finish the answer with the correct cubic unit. Working in centimeters, inches, and feet on the same page keeps the unit from becoming an afterthought.
The page builds from straightforward to backward thinking. Part A shows three labeled prisms and asks for the volume of each. Part B turns the work around: the volume is given along with two edge lengths, and students divide to find the edge that is missing. Part C ends with two real-world problems, one about filling a shipping box with one-centimeter cubes and one about the volume of a wooden toy chest. Print the sheet, hand out pencils, and use the answer key on the last page to check every item in under a minute.
What’s Included
- One printable worksheet page with a Name and Date line
- A formula callout for V = l x w x h at the top of the page
- Part A: three labeled rectangular prisms to solve
- Part B: three missing-edge problems that reverse the formula
- Part C: two real-world word problems with answer lines
- A complete answer key on the final page
Three Reasons This Helps Kids
- Labeled diagrams connect the formula to a solid students can actually see
- Missing-edge problems build the division thinking that plain practice skips
- Writing the cubic unit every time keeps volume separate from area and length
Teacher and Parent Ideas
Give students a handful of centimeter cubes and let them build the Part A prisms before they multiply, so the formula lands on something they have held. This 5th grade volume worksheet also works as a partner activity: one student solves Part A while the other solves Part B, then they trade and check. For an extension, ask students to invent a fourth prism with a volume of 144 cubic units and label its edges. It fits neatly as a warm-up, a homework page, or a quick review before a measurement quiz, and the volume of shapes worksheet can be reused later in the year as a spiral-review page.
