Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object.

Description

Volume is a fundamental concept in geometry, representing the amount of space a three-dimensional object occupies. It is essential for calculating the capacity of containers, the displacement of fluids, and the mass of objects. Understanding volume involves using formulas specific to each shape, such as 

V = l × w × h

 for a rectangular prism or 

V = 4/3 πr3
