Advanced MathMediumVolume of a cube from its surface area
Advanced Math practice question
A cube has a surface area of 96 square units. What is its volume, in cubic units?
Answer: 64
6s² = 96 → s² = 16 → s = 4. Volume = 4³ = 64.
Common wrong answers
- If you answered 4
- 4 is the side length.
- If you answered 16
- 16 is s², a face's area.
- If you answered 512
- 512 is 8³, using s = 8 from 96 ÷ 12.
