If each Square has a side length and 61 cm write an expression for the surface area and another for the volume of the figure

Answer 1

The question implies that the shape is a 3 dimensional cube where all side lengths are 61 cm.

Surface Area (SA) will be the sum of the area (A) of each of the 6 sides of the cube. The area of each of the cube sides is A = L * W, where the length (L) and width (W) are both 61cm, so 61cm squared.

A (of one side) = (61cm) * (61cm) = (61cm)^2

SA = 6 * (61cm)^2 = 22,326 cm^2 = 2.2326 m^2

The volume of the cube (V) is V = L * W * H, where the L, W, and height (H) are all 61cm. So the volume is 61cm cubed,

V = (61cm)^3 = 226,981 cm^3 = 0.226981 m^3
