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

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.

@mathmate
You tagged me for some reason?
