Answer 11

No. Read my explanation above. You need to divide, not multiply.
When you answer math questions, the answers must make sense.
If the entire cube has an area of 486 ft^2, does one single face have more area or less area than the entire 6 faces of the cube?

Answer 12

o

Answer 13

so 81

Answer 14

1 face of the cube must have less area than all the 6 faces of the cube.
That means the answer cannot be 1916 ft^2 which is much more than 486 ft^2.
The answer is 486 ft^2 / 6 (Do a division, not a multiplication.)

Answer 15

Correct. 81 ft^2
