How do you convert 3.00 cubic meters to cubic inches starting off with the fact that 1 in = 2.54 cm?

Can you take it from there?
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

Ahh it's 3.0 x 100^3 = 30000000 / 2.54^3 = 1.83 x 10^5 in^3

Thanks! What I kept doing was cubing the first 3.00 so I would end up with 27 x (100cm)^3!
