Answer:

[tex]40\ cm^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual volume is V.

The measured volume of an object is 46 cubic cm  which was 15% high from the actual volume.

According to the given condition,

[tex]V+\dfrac{15V}{100}=46\\\\\dfrac{115V}{100}=46\\\\V=\dfrac{4600}{115}\\\\V=40\ cm^3[/tex]

So, the actual volume was [tex]40\ cm^3[/tex].
