no; surface area applies to the square unit of measurement of a 2-dimensional surface, such as one face of a box (length and width). Volume is a 3-dimensional representation that takes the 2-dimensional surface area (length x width) and adds a 3rd dimension in the form of depth, or height. Answers in volume will always be a cubic unit of measure.
Summing it up:
Surface Area: L x W
Cubic Area (Volume): L x W x H

How are volume and surface area the same when volume stays the same?
There is no reason for the surface area to remain the same even if the volume is the same.
Is the volume of a cylinder the same as the surface area of a cylinder?
no
Is it possible to have the same surface area different volume?
yes.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different area?
Yes. A cube that is 2x2x2 has the same volume as a rectangular prism that is 1x2x4, which is 8. The surface area of the cube is 24 while the surface area of the rectangular prism is 28.
How are volume and surface area the same?
Volume and surface area can never be the same because volume is a measure in 3-dimensional space whereas area is a measure in 2-dimensional space. The dimensions are different and so equality is not possible.Volume and surface area can never be the same because volume is a measure in 3-dimensional space whereas area is a measure in 2-dimensional space.

Do figures with the same volume always have the same surface area?
figures with the same volume does not have the same surface area.
Do cubes have the same volume and surface area?
Yes Volume: Is the amount it takes to build it. Surface Area: Is how much is on the surface.
Can two rectangular prisms have the same surface area but different volume?
Yes, they can. They can also have the same surface area, but different volume.
What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with surface area and volume m?
If they have the same radius then it is: 3 to 2
How is an increase of diameter of a cell related to the increase in surface area and volume?
If all other dimensions of the cell remain the same, both surface area and volume should increase if the diameter is increased.
How does the surface area to volume ratio change as the cell size increases?
It decreases. As the dimensions increase by a number, the surface area increases by the same number to the power of 2, but the volume increases by the same number to the power of 3, meaning that the volume increases faster than the surface area.
Is the volume of a cylinder the same as the surface area of a cylinder?
no
As a cell becomes larger what happens to its surface area and volume?
The Volume increases faster than the Surface Area
How can two rectangular prisms have the same surface area but different volumes?
Yes, they can. They can also have the same surface area, but different volume.
Is it possible to have the same surface area different volume?
yes.
What dimentions do you need to get the same surface area as volume?
The depth would have to have a value of 1. For example, a slab 60" long by 24" wide by 1" deep would have the same surface area as volume. Examples: Area = LxW (60x24=1440 sq inches). Volume = LXWXD (60x24x1=1440 cubic inches). In this case, the volume has the same value as the surface area
