Question

Find the surface area of the figure below. Each face of the cubes is 2 square units.

46

52

56

72

Answer 1

52

Explanation:

There are 6 cubes with 6 sides each so →→ 6×6=36

There are 10 hidden faces. (Each time two cubes are touching, two faces are hidden. The cubes touched 5 times so that means 5×2 = 10. )

Next, you subtract →→ 36-10 = 26

Now since each face of the cubes is 2 square units, you multiply 26 by 2, which will give you 52.

Answer 2

72

Explanation:

if each cube has 6 sides times tht by 2 to get surface area of one cube now multiply that by 6 which is 72
