Answer: 6/5
Explanation:
Given: 5cm cube
This means each side is 5 cm because a cube has equal sides.
Area of a square is length times width so area of 1 side of a cube:
= 5 x 5
= 25
Surface area is the area of one side of a cube times the number of sides. Now, how many sides does a cube have? 6
= 25 x 6
= 150
Surface area of a 5cm cube = 150
Volume is length times width times height:
= 5 x 5 x 5
= 125
Ratio of surface area to volume:
= 150/125
= 6/5
