Question

A cube-shaped item needs to be painted. The item’s edge length is 2 centimeters. What is the total surface area that will be painted? 16 cm² 24 cm² 32 cm² 48 cm²

Answer 1

For this case, what we must do is find the surface area of the cube.
 By definition, the surface area of a cube is given by:
 $A = 6L ^ 2$
 Where,
 L: length of the sides of the cube.
 Substituting values we have:
 $A = 6 (2) ^ 2 A = 6 (4) A = 24 cm ^ 2$
 Answer:
 The total surface area that will be painted is:
 24 cm²

Answer 2

Answer: A) 24
