To find the area of one face of the cube, we can see that each face is a square with side length 3 units. Therefore, the area of one face is 3 x 3 = 9 square units.
To find the total surface area of the cube, we can see that there are 6 identical faces. So the total surface area is 6 x 9 = 54 square units.
