To determine the surface area of the puzzle game, we first need to identify its exact layout based on a count of the squares it comprises. Since you mentioned that each square is 1 inch, we can compute the surface area based on that size.
Let's assume you provided a grid or a diagram for this puzzle game. Without that exact configuration, I can give you a general method to calculate the surface area.
-
Count the number of squares: If you can visually see the puzzle with squares, count how many full squares are present. If the shape is not entirely square but made of several square units, just count those squares.
-
Calculate the surface area: The formula for the surface area (in square inches) is simply the count of squares if each is 1 inch by 1 inch.
Since I don't see a diagram but you provided some responses:
- If the game consists of 18 total squares, the surface area would be 18 in² or "18 in. squared."
- If the game consists of 9 total squares, the surface area would be 9 in² or "9 in. squared."
- If there are 54 total squares, it would be 54 in² or "54 in. squared."
Looking at potential answers you provided:
- "18 in.2" or "18 in. squared"
- "9 in.2" or "9 in. squared"
- "54 in.2" or "54 in. squared"
- "54 cm²" (which would be equivalent to a different measurement unit)
You need to determine which of these correspond to the number of squares in your puzzle.
If you specify the number of squares, I can help you arrive at the correct choice!
