bot what did you multiply to get 384 I get it that you multiplied 8 and 8 which gave you 64 but what did you multiply 64 with
384 square inches
how did you get that anwser
To find the surface area of a cube, you need to calculate the area of each face and then sum them up. Since all faces of a cube are square and have equal sides, you can use the formula:
Surface Area = 6 * (side length^2)
Given that the side length is 8 inches, you can substitute it into the formula as follows:
Surface Area = 6 * (8^2) = 6 * 64 = 384 square inches
Therefore, the surface area of a cube with a side length of 8 inches is 384 square inches.
you got 64 now what do you do next
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's correct the calculation:
Given that the side length of the cube is 8 inches, the formula to find the surface area of a cube remains the same:
Surface Area = 6 * (side length^2)
Substitute the side length of 8 inches into the formula:
Surface Area = 6 * (8^2) = 6 * 64 = 384 square inches
Therefore, the correct surface area of a cube with a side length of 8 inches is 384 square inches.
