Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface of the cube = 6a²
= 6 * 42 * 42
= 10584 cm²
Hole that is drilled out, will make a cylinder shape in the middle of the cube
Volume of iron in the cube = Volume of cube - volume of cylinder
Volume of cube = a³
= 42 * 42 * 42
= 74088 cm³
Cylinder:
r = 14/2 = 7 cm
h = sideof the cube = 42 cm
Volume = πr²h
= 6468 cm³
Volume of iron in the cube = Volume of cube - volume of cylinder
= 74088 - 6468
= 67620 cm³
