Question

Please answer ASAP Amanda used 24 grams of paint to paint a wooden cube. When it dried, she cut the cube into 8 equal cubes. How many more grams of paint does Amanda need to paint the unpainted surfaces of the 8 cubes?

Answer 1

Answer:

24 g

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

The big cube is compose by the 8 small cubes.

Because of the symmetry we can check what's happening to one of this small cube.

As Amanda has already painted the big cube it means that the same cube has 3 faces painted, so 3 faces are left unpainted. only 50 % is painted.

so Amanda need 24 grams to paint the unpainted surfaces of the 8 cubes.

hope this helps
