Answer» Volume of sheet = volume of cube First we will CALCULATE volume of METAL sheet =l X B x h = 27 x8 x1=216cm^3 So volume of the cube is also 216 cm^3 216=a^3 a=cube ROOT of 216= 6 So SURFACE area of sheet = 2(lb+bh+hl) =2(27x8+8x1+1x27) =502cm^2 And surface area of cube =6a^2 =6 x6^2=216cm^2 Difference between surface area = 502-216=286cm^2 |
