Problema Solution

A cube has a volume of 64. What is the surface area of the cube?

(use cube roots and the formula for surface area of any cube-6s^2)

Answer provided by our tutors

let 's' be the side of the cube


Volume of cube = s^3 thus


s^3 = 64


s^3 = 4^3


s = 4


Area of cube = 6s^2


Area of cube = 6*4^2


Area of cube = 96


the surface area of the cube is 96.
