Detailed Solution

It is given that two identical cubes each of volume

64 c m 3

are joined together end to end. The surface area of the resulting cuboid:
Let the length of the cube be a. Then the length of the cuboid is 2a, and breadth and height are a.

S = 2 l b + l h + b h S = 2 2 a a + 2 a a + a a S = 2 2 a 2 + 2 a 2 + a 2 S = 2 5 a 2

So,

S = 10 a 2

Given that, the volume of the cube is

64 c m 3

⇒ a 3 = 64 c m 3 ⇒ a 3 = (4) 3 ⇒ a = 4 c m

Finding the surface area of the cuboid,

S = 10 a 2 S = 1042 S = 160 c m 2

Therefore, 3 is the correct option.
