    Volume of first cube = 1 *1 *1 = 1 cubic cm.
    Volume of second cube = 6 * 6 *6 = 216 cu cm.
    Volume of third cube = 8 * 8 * 8 = 512 cub cm.
    Then Volume of bigger cube = 512 + 1 + 216 = 729.
    So, side of bigger cube = Cube root of 729 = 9 cm.
    Surface area of cube = 6 * a^2 = 6 * 9 *9 = 486 sq. cm.
