Question

Daria makes and sells stuffed toys. She uses special fabric to cover a foam cube to make a number cube. How much fabric did Daria use to make this number cube?

NOTE: A cube has 6 sides that are all squares with the same dimensions. To find the surface area, find the area of all sides of the cube (top, bottom, front, back, left, right).

Answer 1

Answer:294

Step-by-step explanation: you’re trying to find the surface area of the cube to find out how much material Daria needs. To do so find the area of 1 face of the cube (which is a square). The problem gives us 1 side of the square as 7cm. A square has the same length for its 4 sides, so to find the area of that 1 face do 7 x 7=49. The question also gives the hint that a cube has 6 faces so you would multiply the 49 by 6 to get the total surface area of the cube. 49 x 6=294.

Not sure if this is right but hope it helps.
