If I covered  it with gold paper I would use the following formula: h x l

5cm x 5cm = 25cm squares. 6 x 25= 150 square cm of gold paper.

Volume

The volume of my cube is length x height x width = 5cmx5cmx5cm=125cm 3.

This is a picture of 1cm cubes. If I had 4 more layers of this I could make the other cube. This shows 5 lots of 5. If I had another 4 lots like this, it would make 125 cubes all together.
