shapes and sizes that all have the same volume.
A cube whose length, width, and height are all 1 yard has a volume of 1 cubic yard.
But if you double one dimension and cut another one in half, the volume stays the same.
And all the time that you're doing that, someone can easily come along with a balloon,
a cylindrical soda bottle, or a goat-skin, that also has a volume of a cubic yard.
