A) $25 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }$
B) $21 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }$
C) $5 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }$
D) $10 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The volume of a cube is given by $V = s^3$, where $s$ is the length of a side. Given $V = 125 \mathrm{cm}^3$, solving for $s$ gives $s = \sqrt[3]{125} = 5 \mathrm{cm}$. The area of each side is $s^2 = 5^2 = 25 \mathrm{cm}^2$.
