a cube of side 8 cm is cut into as many cubes of sides 2cm as possible

1.	a cube of side 8 cm is cut into as many cubes of sides 2cm as possible what is the total number of small cubes and the ratio of the total surface area of the original cube to that of the sum of the total surface areas of the smaller cubes
Answer» -STEP explanation:64 SMALL cubes can be made.This can be found by dividing the volume of LARGE CUBE / volume of i small cube = 512/8 = 64Ratio:TSA of original cube: 384 cm2TSA of 1 small cube: 24 cm2TSA of 64 small cubes: 1536 cm2Ratio: 384:1536 = 1:4
