SUMMARY
A large cube can be divided into 125 smaller cubes of equal size by recognizing that the cube's dimensions must be 5 units each (5x5x5). This results in 125 smaller cubes, each measuring 1x1x1. The confusion arose from the distinction between cubes and squares, emphasizing the importance of understanding three-dimensional geometry in this context.
