The surface area of a cube is calculated by finding the area of each face and adding them together.
Since all sides of the cube are the same length, the area of each face is 1.5 meters x 1.5 meters = 2.25 square meters.
There are 6 faces on a cube, so the total surface area is 2.25 square meters x 6 = 13.5 square meters.
Therefore, the surface area of the cube is 13.5 square meters.
