A cubic block of wood with side lengths of 10 cm is cut into smaller cubes with side lengths of 1 cm. What is the ratio of the surface area of the larger block of wood to the combined surface area of the smaller blocks of wood? Express your answer as a common fraction.

the large cube has a surface area of 6102=600, and the smaller cubes have a total area of 61000=6000.

 

so, the ratio is 6006000 = 110

 

 

hope this helped! please let me know if you are still confused smiley
