To paint a wooden cube, Pinocchio needs 4 grams of paint. When it is dry, he cut the cube into 8 smaller pieces of smaller size. How much paint additional paint does Pinocchio need to paint the unpainted surfaces of the smaller cubes

9 grams of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

6×8=48

48÷4= 12

48-12=36

36÷4=9

first multiply 6 by 8 because a cube has six faces and you cut that cube eight times

second after you cut that you will have 48 faces and for every six faces there are 4 grams of paint so you divide 48 by 4 and you get 12 this means that 12 of the faces are painted

next you subtract 12 from 48 and you get 36 this means that 36 faces are not painted

lastly you divide 36 by 4 and you will get 9 grams of paint
