Remark
A cube has six sides, all of them equal. The formula for 1 side is s^2. The formula for all six = 6s^2.
Step One
Find the surface area of the larger cube.
Area = 6 *s^2
s = 15
Area = 6 *15^2
Area = 6 * 225
Area = 1350
Step Two
Find the area of the smaller cube
Area = 6s^2
Area = 6 * 12^2
Area = 6 * 144
Area = 864
Step Three
Find the difference
Area1 - Area2 = difference
1350 - 864 = 486
The difference is area = 486 units^2 <<<<< Answer
There is a slightly shorter way. Take out the common factor of 6
Difference = 6 * (15^2 - 12^2)
Difference = 6 * (225 - 144)
Difference = 6 * (81)
Difference = 486

7/8 = 0.875 is the decimal equivalent.
It seems that you are trying to find the length of hair of Florencia on Tuesday.
Given that length of the hair of Florencia on Monday = h centimeters
On Tuesday, she got hair cut.
So new length of the hair of Florencia on Tuesday = 75% of Monday value
= 75% of (h)
= 0.75* (h)
= 0.75h
Hence final answer is the length of the hair of Florencia on Tuesday is ( 0.75h ) centimeters.
