Solution

Sure, here are the steps to solve the problem:

  1. Understand that a cube has 6 equal sides.

  2. The formula to find the area of a square (which is what each side of the cube is) is side length squared. So, for one side of the cube, the area would be 3.5 inches * 3.5 inches = 12.25 square inches.

  3. Since a cube has 6 sides, you would multiply the area of one side by 6 to find the total surface area of the cube. So, 12.25 square inches * 6 = 73.5 square inches.

So, the surface area of the cube is 73.5 square inches.
