Question

A large game cube is wrapped with shrink wrap. How many square inches of shrink wrap will be used to wrap five game cubes?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there is no information about the length of the cube

Hence, Let a is the length of the cube, we have:

The total surface areas is calculate as:

A = 6$s^{2}$

<=> A = 6$a^{2}$ square inches

The area of the shrink wrap will be used to wrap five game cubes is:

= The area of one cube * 5

= 6$a^{2}$ *5 = 30 $a^{2}$

For example, the length of the cube is 3 inches

=> The total surface areas is calculate as:

A = 6$s^{2}$  = 6*$3^{2}$ = 54 square inches

The area of the shrink wrap will be used to wrap five game cubes is:

54*5 = 270 square inches

Hope it will find you well.
