Numerical integration formulas in n-dimensional Euclidean space of degree three are discussed. In this paper, for the product regions a method is presented to construct numerical integration formulas of degree three with 2n real points and positive weights. The presented problem is a little different from those dealt with by other authors. All the corresponding one-dimensional integrals can be different from each other and they are also nonsymmetrical. In this paper an n-dimensional numerical integration problem is turned into n one-dimensional moment problems, which simplifies the construction process. Some explicit numerical formulas are given. Furthermore, a more generalized numerical integration problem is considered, which will shed light on the final solution to the third degree numerical integration problem.
