Detailed Solution

Given are three cubes of volume 27  cm 3  .
We have the following formulae,
Volume of cube = a 3   The total surface area of cuboid = 2 lb+bh+hl  
The length of the cube will be,
  a 3 =27 a=3cm  
Then the dimensions of the cuboid will be,
l=3a=9 b=a=3 h=a=3  
The surface area of the cuboid will be,
=2(9×3+3×3+3×9) =2(27+9+27) =2(63) =126  cm 2  
Thus, the surface area of the cuboid is 126  cm 2  .
Therefore the correct option is 1.
