Question

The volume of a box in the shape of a cube is 2197cm cube. Find the area of one side of box.

Answer 1

Answer

Let the side of the cube be x.

Volume = length × width × height

A cube has Length = width = height

Now volume = x × x × x = x³

This equals to 2197

∴ X³ = 2197

X = ∛2197

= 13

The side of the cube = 13cm

Area = length × width

Length = width = 13cm

Area = 13 × 13 = 169

= 169 cm
