2. A cube with a side of 8 dm is cut into cubes with sides of 4 cm. How many cubes will be obtained?
2. Let's find out how many 4 cm cubes fit into one side of the larger cube $(80: 4=20)$. Then, in the first layer of cubes, there will be 400 $(20 \times 20=400)$. We have 20 such layers. In total, there will be 8000 cubes $(400 \times 20=8000)$.
