Manny created a storage bin for the family to hold the remote control and cell phone cords what is the total surface area of the surge band if one side is 5 cm one side is 5 cm and the other side is 5 cm squared

The total surface area of the storage bin can be calculated by finding the area of each side and then summing them all together.

Given that one side is 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm squared. Since there are 2 sides with the same dimensions we can multiply this area by 2, resulting in 50 cm squared.

The last side is also 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm squared.

Therefore, the total surface area of the storage bin is 50 cm squared + 25 cm squared + 25 cm squared = 100 cm squared.
