Consider the 6 inch × 9 inch rectangular cake that is 2 inches deep. If you cover the cake with frosting excluding the bottom, what is the surface area of the cake that will be covered with frosting?

help!!!! i dont understand

The top is 9 * 6 = 54 square inches

Two sides are 2 * 9 = 36 square inches

Two sides are 2 * 6 = 24 square inches.

Now add those areas together for the total amount of frosting.

Yes, 114 SQUARE INCHES

Who else cant wait to get out of this school 💀

so it would be 114 ?

You are very welcome.
