Question

A candy store called "Sugar" built a giant hollow sugar

Answer 1

Answer:

27‬ cubic ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for volume is Base * Height * Width;

and the formula for area is Base * Height.

This problem mentions the structure is a cube and therefore it is assumed that every wall has the same area. Since there are 6 sides to a cube you divide the total amount of ft which make up this cube to know the area to each wall.

54 ft / 6 walls = 9 ft per wall

With the area of each wall you can find the base and height:

base * height =  area

base = height ..... b*h ..... b*b=area ..... b^2 = area ... b = sqrt(area)

b = sqrt(9) = 3

base = 3ft

height = 3ft

since: base=height=width

width = 3ft

volume = 3 * 3 * 3 = 3^3 = 27 ft^3
