Explanation:

Given,

Side length of each cube = 9 in.

no. of cubes glued together = 3.

now,

surface area of cube = 6s²

after inserting values we got,

6 × 9² = 6 × 81 = 486 inches.

so,

Surface area of all 3 cubes = 3 × 486 = 1458 inches.

hence, surface area of the figure is 1458 inches.

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and stay safe !
