Manny created a storage bin for the family to hold the remote control and cell phone cords. What is the total surface area ofthe storage bin? 5 long 5 wide 5 height
The total surface area of the storage bin is 150 square units.
To calculate the surface area, you need to find the area of each face and add them up:
- The top and bottom faces are both 5 x 5 = 25 square units each.
- The front and back faces are each 5 x 5 = 25 square units each.
- The left and right faces are each 5 x 5 = 25 square units each.
Add all the areas together:
25 + 25 + 25 + 25 + 25 + 25 = 150
Therefore, the total surface area of the storage bin is 150 square units.
