The total surface area \(A\) of a cube can be calculated using the formula:
\[
A = 6s^2
\]
where \(s\) is the side length of the cube.
Given that the side length \(s = 5\) inches, we can substitute this value into the formula:
\[
A = 6(5^2)
\]
\[
A = 6(25)
\]
\[
A = 150 \text{ in}^2
\]
Therefore, the total surface area of the cube is **150 in²**.
\[
A = 6s^2
\]
