Note: As you have not added the drawing. So, I assume the total number of two-inch cubes are stacked are FIVE. So, I will explain based on that assumption which anyways will clear your concept.

Answer:

The total surface are will be: [tex]\boxed{120\:\:sq.in}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that

  • A cube contains [tex]6[/tex] faces of equal area.

So, the total surface area of the cube is equal to [tex]6[/tex] multiplied by the area of one of the faces.

As the edge of the cube = 2 inches

So, the area of one of the faces is:

                                                       [tex]2\times 2=4\:\:sq.in[/tex]

Thus, the total area of the cube is:

                                                      [tex]6\times \:4=24\:\:sq.in[/tex]

Assuming there are total 5 cubes which are stacked, so the total surface are will:

           [tex]24\times 5=120\:\:sq.in[/tex]

Therefore, the total surface are will be: [tex]\boxed{120\:\:sq.in}[/tex]                                                    

Answer:

The answer is D.) 120 sq.in

Step-by-step explanation:

Count the faces that show, multiply the faces by the area of each square. There area 30 sides/faces showing and the area of each square is 4, so 30 x 4 = 120 square inches.
