Question

A cube has a side length of 10 inches. Jada says the surface area of the cube is

Answer 1

Answer:

I agree with Jada

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you would find the area of one of the faces and it is 100 and then you would multiply the area of one face by 6 because there are 6 faces so you would get 600 inches so Jada would be right

Answer 2

Answer:

Jada is correct in this situation.

Step-by-step explanation: Noah's math is not correct. He goes from 6 times 10^2 to 60^2, which you cannot do. You first must do the exponents (10^2=100) and then multiply it by 6. Jada's method should be similar to that.
