The volume of this cube is 1,000 cubic millimeters. What is the surface area of this cube?
To find the surface area of a cube, we need to use the formula:
Surface area = 6 x (edge length)^2
Since the volume of the cube is 1,000 cubic millimeters, we can find the edge length by taking the cube root of 1,000:
Edge length = cube root of 1,000
Edge length = 10 millimeters
Now we can use this edge length to find the surface area:
Surface area = 6 x (10 mm)^2
Surface area = 6 x 100 mm^2
Surface area = 600 mm^2
Therefore, the surface area of the cube is 600 square millimeters.
