Acube has an edge length of 6 cm. it is to be enlarged by a scale factor of 4. what is the surface area ratio of the enlarged cube to the original cube? enter your answer, as a fraction in simplest form, in the box\

The surface area ratio of the enlarged cube to the original cube is 16:1, or as a fraction, 16/1.

If the scale factor is 4, the edge length of the enlarged cube is 24 cm.
(6 × 4 = 24)

To find the surface area of a cube, you can use the formula , where a is equal to the edge length of the cube.

First, I will solve for the surface area of the original cube. 

SA = 6 × 6²
SA = 6 × 36
SA = 216

Next, I will solve for the surface area of the enlarged cube.

SA = 6 × 24²
SA = 6 × 576
SA = 3456

To find the ratio, we divide the original cube's surface area from the enlarged cube's surface area.

3456 ÷ 216 = 16

The surface area ratio of the enlarged cube to the original cube is 16:1, or as a fraction, 16/1.

Yes of course i will indeed you with your problem.
