column b
a. the number of cubes that fit inside a shape
b. the number of squares inside a shape.
c. the area of all the surfaces of a 3 - d shape
d. the length around a shape

Explanation:

• Perimeter: It is the total length around a shape. So, "What is perimeter?" matches with "The length around a shape" (d).
• Area: It represents the number of square units inside a 2 - D shape. So, "What is area?" matches with "The number of squares inside a shape" (b).
• Volume: It is the number of cubic units that fit inside a 3 - D shape. So, "What is volume?" matches with "The number of cubes that fit inside a shape" (a).
• Surface Area: It is the sum of the areas of all the surfaces of a 3 - D shape. So, "What is surface area?" matches with "The area of all the surfaces of a 3 - D shape" (c).
