Question

Which expressions show the volume and the surface area of this cube-shaped packing box?

A cube with a dimension of 1 and five-eighths feet.

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom right answer choice is the answer.

To find the volume, you do (length × width × height)

And to get the surface area, you do
`6(x)^(3)`

We just have to plug 1
`(5)/(8)`

Where did they get
`(13)/(8)`?

They made the mixed fraction into a fraction by multiply 8 by 1, then adding that product to 5.

Which leads us to the answer choice being the bottom right.

Answer 2

• D. V = (13/8)³ ft³, SA = 6(13/8)² ft²

Explanation:

Volume of the cube:

• V = a³

Surface area of the cube:

• SA = 6a²

Given cube has side of 1 5/8 feet = 13/8 feet

Substitute the value of a:

• V = (13/8)³ ft³
• SA = 6(13/8)² ft²

Correct option is D
