00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.737
Here is the problem: Find the volume and surface area of a cube with edge 3.

2
00:00:05.187 --> 00:00:12.629
Compute the volume (cubic units) and total surface area (square units) of the solid from its dimensions in one length unit.

3
00:00:13.429 --> 00:00:13.963
Volume.

4
00:00:14.413 --> 00:00:16.689
Surface area (six square faces).

5
00:00:17.489 --> 00:00:24.234
So the answer is Volume equals 27 cubic units; surface area equals 54 square units.

6
00:00:24.684 --> 00:00:35.864
Volume counts unit cubes inside a solid; surface area counts unit squares needed to wrap it. Doubling every length multiplies volume by 8 and surface area by 4.

7
00:00:36.664 --> 00:00:40.635
Volume 27 and surface area 54 are positive.
