Answer:


A_s=486\ units^2

Explanation:

Remember that the sides of a cube always have the same length.

In this case the length of the sides L is:


L = 9.

The cubes have 6 faces. Then the surface area of the cube is equal to the area of its 6 faces.

Since all sides of the cube have the same measure, then the area of each face is:


A = L ^ 2

Then the area of the 6 faces is:


A_s = 6L ^ 2


A_s = 6 * (9 ^ 2)


A_s=486\ units^2
