Answer:

81.5

Step-by-step explanation:Cube has all sides of equal dimensions and like that it has 6 faces.

So total surface area of cube is equal to the combined area of all the six faces.

Now each face has equal dimensions so same area

Therefore,

area of a single face =side²

Therefore, area of entire cube = 6 times the area of a single face

= 6 * side²
