Answer:

3 : 1

Explanation:


\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Surface area of a cube}\\\\$SA=6s^2$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $s$ is the side length. \\\end{minipage}}


\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Volume of a cube}\\\\$V=s^3$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $s$ is the side length. \\\end{minipage}}

Therefore, the surface area to volume ratio is:


\implies 6s^2:s^3

Divide both sides by s²:


\implies (6s^2)/(s^2):(s^3)/(s^2)


\implies 6:s

If the side length of the cube is 2 cm, then the surface area to volume ratio is:


\implies 6:2


\implies 3:1

Answer:

  • C) 3 : 1

-----------------------------

Given

  • Cube of side a = 2 cm

Find the surface area

  • S = 6a² = 6×2² = 24

Find the volume

  • V = a³ = 2³ = 8

Find the ratio of surface area to volume

  • S : V =
  • 24 : 8 =
  • 3 : 1
