Solution:

Side(a) of the cube = 12 cm

Volume of the cube =(a)3=(12 cm)3=1728 cm3

Let the side of the smaller cube be a1.

Volume of 1 smaller cube =(17288)cm3=216 cm3(a1)3=216 cm3⇒a1=6 cm

Therefore, the side of the smaller cubes will be 6 cm.

Ratio between surface areas of cubes =Surface area of bigger cubeSurface area of Smaller cube=6×1226×62=(12)2(6)2=41

Therefore, the ratio between the surface areas of these cubes is 4:1.

my doubt is how this a1 got 6cm
