A cube of side 6 cm is melted to form smaller cubes of side 2 cm. What is the total surface area of all smaller cubes together?
A216 cm²
B648 cm²
C432 cm²
D1296 cm²
✓ Correct Answer: B — 648 cm²
No. of cubes = 6³/2³ = 216/8 = 27. Area of one small cube = 6 * 2² = 24. Total area = 27 * 24 = 648 cm².
