Answer:

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of a cube = 1 inch

Required

Determine the edge length of the cube

If the container can take 125 cubes, then that's the volume

So:

[tex]Volume = 125in^3[/tex]

Volume of a cube is calculated as thus;

[tex]Volume = Length^3[/tex]

This gives;

[tex]Length^3 = 125[/tex]

Take cube root of both sides

[tex]Length = \sqrt[3]{125}[/tex]

[tex]Length = 5[/tex]

Hence, the length is 5 inches
