Answer:
25 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side length of the cube be s m
Therefore,
[tex] {s}^{3} = 2197 \\ \\ {s}^{3} = {13}^{3} \\ \\ \implies \: s = 13 \: m \\ \\ total \: surface \: area \: of \: cube \\ = 6 {s}^{2} \\ = 6( {13})^{2} \\ = 6 \times 169 \\ = 1,014 \: {m}^{2} \\ \\ no \: of \: cans \: of \: paint \: needed \\ = \frac{1014}{40} \\ = 25.35 \: \\ \approx \: 25[/tex]
