answer:288
since it’s a cube , all side lengths will be equal- in this case , 6 feet.
to get the area of one wall , you do height x width- in this case 6x6.
that equals 36 , which is the area for 1 wall.
since they’re painting all 8 walls , you multiply 36x8
that gets you the answer 288 (feet squared)
