To find the length of an edge

You have to know that there are 6 square surfaces on a cube.

So the equation would be 6a² because is the surface area formula and is equal to 100 square inches

Solve for the a:

6a² = 100

a² = 100/6

a= √( 100/6)

a = 4.0825 in

Rounded to the nearest tenth

a = 4 in
