OpenStudy (khdaa):

I don't have any guess :(

OpenStudy (mathmate):

We should never guess in math! lol The surface area of a cube of side c is given by six times the surface area of one side, or \(\Large S=6c^2\) Here c=18 cm use your calculator to work out S, the unit for area is \(cm^3\) for measurements in cm

OpenStudy (khdaa):

ok, so I need to do 18 time 3?

OpenStudy (khdaa):

I am not really sure what I need to do...

OpenStudy (khdaa):

18 x 3 = 54, but it doesn't make sense lol XD

OpenStudy (khdaa):

@mathmate are you there?

OpenStudy (khdaa):

@mathmate?

OpenStudy (khdaa):

PLZ HELP ME!!

OpenStudy (khdaa):

ah, i see... it's 18 x 6, right?

OpenStudy (khdaa):

Is it?

hartnn (hartnn):

when we plug in c =18 in 6c^2, we get 6*(18)^2 calculate this.

OpenStudy (khdaa):

what does it mean ^??? I am sooo stupid sorry

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

Do you still need help?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

@Kikuo \(6(18^2)\) means \(6*18*18)\) also correction for the units, for areas, the unit should be \(cm^2\) for measurements in cm.

OpenStudy (kikuo):

@mathmate You tagged me for some reason?

OpenStudy (aaronandyson):

He tagged the wrong user XD

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Yep, sorry! @kikuo!
