Given :  125 identical cubes are cut from a big cube and all the smaller cubes are arranged in a row to form a long cuboid.

To find : percentage increase in the total surface area of the cuboid over the total surface area of the cube

Solution:

Let say Large cube side = 5a

Volume of cube  = 125a³

Surface area of cube = 6 (5a)² = 150a²

125 identical cubes are cut from it

=> volume of each cube =  125a³ /125 = a³

=> Side of each cube  = a

125 cubes arranged in a row

Hence cuboid size  = 125a * a * a

Surface Area = 2 ( 125a * a + 125a *a + a *a)

= 2(251a²)

= 502a²

increase in surface area =  502a²  - 150a²   = 352a²  

% increase in Surface Area = (352a²/150a²) * 100

= 234.67 %

234.67 % increase in total Surface area of the cube

% increase in Surface Area = (352a²/ 150a²) * 100

= 234.67 =234.2/3
