C Correct answer
Explanation

Volume = s^3 = 8, so s = 2. Surface area = 6 * s^2 = 6 * 4 = 24.

AI explanation

Using the cube volume formula V = side cubed, the side length is the cube root of 8, which is 2 inches. The surface area formula for a cube is 6 times side squared, so we calculate 6 times 2 squared. This gives a total surface area of 24 square inches.
