To find the surface area (SA) of a cube, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{SA} = 6 \times s^2
\]
where \(s\) is the length of an edge of the cube. In this case, the edge length is 4 inches.
Now, substituting the value into the formula:
\[
\text{SA} = 6 \times (4 \, \text{inches})^2
\]
\[
= 6 \times 16 \, \text{inches}^2
\]
\[
= 96 \, \text{inches}^2
\]
Therefore, the surface area of the cube is \(96 \, \text{inches}^2\).
\[
\text{SA} = 6 \times s^2
\]
where \(s\) is the length of an edge of the cube. In this case, the edge length is 4 inches.
Now, substituting the value into the formula:

Therefore, the surface area of the cube is \(96 \, \text{inches}^2\).
