\r\n" );
document.write( "Let \"a\" be the cube edge length.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the surface area of the cube is \"4%2Aa%5E2\" \"cm%5E2\", while its volume is \"a%5E3\" \"cm%5E3\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "According to the condition,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"1.5%2A4%2Aa%5E2\" = \"a%5E3\",\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hence, \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"6a%5E2\" = \"a%5E3\"  --->  a = 6 cm.\r\n" );
