    The volume of cuboid is twice that of a cube. If the dimensions of the cuboid are 9 cm, 8 cm and 6 cm, the total surface area of the cube is

    A)  \[72\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[216\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[432\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[108\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Volume of cuboid \[=9\times 8\times 6=432\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\] According to the question, volume of cube \[=\frac{432}{2}=216\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\] \[\therefore \] Edge of cube \[=\sqrt[3]{216}=6\,\,\text{cm}\] \[\therefore \] Total surface area of cube \[=6\times {{(6)}^{2}}=216\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]
