Answer:
Answer⤵
i)Let the length of the edge of the cube be 'x' cm (i) Total surface area = 6x2 cm2 Increased length of the edge = 2x Total surface area = 6(2x)2 cm2 = 24x2 cm2 If the edge of the cube is doubled surface area of the cube increases by 4 times. (ii) Volume of the cube = x3 cm3 Increased length of the edge = 2x Volume of the cube formed = (2x)3 cm3 = 8x3 cm3 If the edge of the cube is doubled volume of the cube is increases by 8 times.
ii)Consider that the side of a cube is S.Volume of a cube will be.Vc=S³ of cubic unitsWhen each side of a cube is doubled,Volume becomes,Vc=(2S)³ of cubic units =8S³Which means that the volume which has increased is 7S³ and it's 7 times the original volume ,

Answer:
⇒(i) Initial surface area =6×l×l
New surface area =6×(2×l)×(2×l)=4× initial surface area.
So, the new surface area will be increased by 4 times.
⇒(ii) Intial volume =l×l×l
Final volume =(2l)×(2l)×(2l)=8× initial volume.
So, volume of the cube will be increased by 8 times.
