Answer:

96 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of one face of the cube can be calculated as

Area = side x side

Area = 4in x 4 in

Area = 16 in²

Then, a cube has 6 equal faces, so the surface area of the cube will be

Surface Area = 6 x 16 in²

Surface Area = 96 in²

Therefore, the answer is 96 in²
