The answer depends on what information you have about the cube. If, for example, you know the volume, V, then the surface area is 6*cuberoot(V)^2. If you have the lengths of an edge, s, then it is 6*s^2.

How do you work out the surface of a cube if each side has a length of 7.2?
surface area of cube=6*side*side =6*7.2*7.2
When would you need to know the volume of a cube?
When asked to work out the lengths of its edges and its surface area.
How do you find the surface area of a cute?
There are 6 faces to a cube. So work out the area of one face and multiply by 6. For a 6 inch cube: 6 x 6 = 36 x 6 = 216in3.
How do you work out area of a cube?
Area of a cube = 6 X side X side since all sides of cube are equal.
How do you calculate the volume of a cube with a surface area of 150 square units?
Work it backwards.-- A cube has 6 faces.-- The area of each face is (150 / 6).-- The length of each side is sqrt(150/6).-- The volume of the cube is (side)3 = (150/6)3/2 = 125 cubic units

Is the total surface area of a cube each of whose edges is 12 inches long equal to 6 square feet?
Yes, that's exactly right. Great work !
What is the surface area for a cube that is 15mm?
If you are referring to a cube with 15mm sides then this is how you would work it out. A cube has 12 edges of the same length, and 6 faces of the same area. We know area is length^2 (length to the power of 2 / length X length. What you have to find is the total surface areo of all of the faces. If you can work out the area of one face you will know the area of the others. Since the area of one face is the area of one square, we can use the fomula length^2 which is also known as length X length. we also know in this instance the length of the square is 15mm. so we substitute 15 into the formula length X length: 15 X 15 =225 Square mm (we write square millimetres as we are refering to area [2 dimensions] But we have so far only worked out the area of one face. since there are 6 faces on a cube we multiply the area of one face by 6. So in this Case: 225 square mm X 6 =1350 square mm that is how you find the surface area of any cube.
How does surface area work?
It would help if the question was less obscure. What do you mean by "work"? How the surface area affects chemical processes (for example the surface area of catalysts), or diffusion, or surface areas and friction?
How do you work out suface area of cube?
The surface area of one face is one side squared. There are six faces. Six times the square of one side.
What is a formula to work out the surface area of a quadrilateral?
A quadrilateral does not have a surface area because it is not a voluminous figure.
How do you find the surface area of a rectanguar prism?
Work out the surface area of its 6 faces individually and then add them together
