What is the number of cubic centimeters in one cubic meter?

A cubic meter is defined as the volume of a cube with sides that are each one meter long. To convert cubic meters to cubic centimeters, it's important to first understand the relationship between meters and centimeters.

1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters. Therefore, when calculating the volume, we need to convert each side of the cube from meters to centimeters.

Since the volume is calculated using the formula for the volume of a cube (side length)³, we convert each side:

(1 meter)³ = (100 centimeters)³.

Calculating this gives:

100 cm × 100 cm × 100 cm = 1,000,000 cm³.

Thus, there are exactly 1,000,000 cubic centimeters in one cubic meter. This makes the choice of 1000000 cm³ the correct answer. The other numerical values provided do not accurately reflect this conversion, as they result from incorrect calculations or misunderstandings of the cubic measurement.
