Help please!!!!
volume = lenght x height x width
For the surfac area, find the area of each side and add them together. For the volume, thomaster jsut posted it.
So 512?
512 is the volume.
8 * 8 * 8 = 512 in^3 surface is 8*8 = 64 in^2
What is the area of the bottom?
For SA, there is one advantage with a cube. All 6 sides are the same.
so 512 x 3?
nooooo 64 times 6
I get 384
there are 6 sides of 64 inche square
I get 384
So 512 subtract 384?
6 sides, each side has 8 by 8 dimensions. As Mertsj points out, sort of indirectly, you can start with one side like the bottom, find it, and then I am betting his next step would have been to have you multiply that by 6.
the surface area has nothing to do with the volume
I need the surface area
surface area is 384 inch square Volume is 512 inch^3
384 is the SA. That is the answer. This is actually two question and you need to do the math seperatly for each.
