Question 257146
a cube has the same volume as a right, rectangular prism whose dimensions are 6 units by 12 units by 24 units. 
What is the surface area of the cube?
:
Find the volume of the right, rectangular prism:
6 * 12 * 24 = 1728
:
Find the length of the side of a cube with a vol of 1728 cu/units
s = cube root of 1728 ({{{1728^(1/3)}}})
s = 12 units
:
Surface area of cube = 6(s^2)
S.A. = 6*12^2
S.A. = 6*144
S.A. = 864 sq/units
