Answer 1

Given:
Surface area of a cube = 2.535 m²

convert square meters to square centimeters:
1 square meter = 10,000 square centimeters

2.535 m² * 10,000 cm²/m² = 25,350 cm²


B.The number representing the surface area would increase.
(from 2.535 to 25,350)

E.The actual surface area would stay the same.
(only the units used differ).
