The volume increases from a³ to (a + 1)³. Subtracting the original volume gives (a + 1)³ − a³ = a³ + 3a² + 3a + 1 − a³ = 3a² + 3a + 1 unit cubes to be added.

  1. The initial cube of edge a has a volume of a³ unit cubes. The larger cube of side a + 1 requires a total volume of (a + 1)³ unit cubes. Expanding (a + 1)³ gives a³ + 3a² + 3a + 1. The number of unit cubes that must be added is the difference: (a + 1)³ − a³ = 3a² + 3a + 1.
