How answer this question

Answer 1

Answer: 54 ft²

Step-by-step explanation: The side of a cube is given to be 3ft

We know the formula of the surface area of a cube is: 6A²

putting the value of side in the formula gives

6x(3)²=54 ft²

Answer 2

`54 \: {ft}^(2)`

Explanation:

The surface area is the sum of the lateral and base areas

Since the given figure is a cube (all sides and walls of a cube are equal), instead of finding its surface area the harder way, we can find the area of one side and multiply it by the number of sides a cube has (which is 6):

`a(surface) = 3 * 3 * 6 = 54 \: {ft}^(2)`
