Answer:

27 ft³

Explanation:

given that it took 54 ft² of material to build a cube.

This means that the surface area of the cube is 54 ft²

we know that a regular cube has 6 square sides that are equal in area. Hence,

area of each side = 54 ft² ÷ 6 = 9 ft²

Assuming that each side is length L,

area of each side = L x L = L²

hence, L = √area of each side

L = √9 = 3 feet.

Volume of cube is given by L³

= 3³

= 27 ft³ (answer)

Hope this helps!
