A box needs to be decorated to use as a prop in a play. The bottom and the back of the box do not need to be decorated. What is the surface area of the box that needs to be decorated?

the box has a height of 20 cm a width of 20 cm and a front of 27 cm

The answer is 1880 is it that hard to JUST ANSWER EVERYTIME ON MATH THIS BOTS SCREWS ME UP

To find the surface area that needs to be decorated, we need to find the area of the front and the two sides of the box.

The area of the front is equal to the width multiplied by the height, or 20 cm * 27 cm = 540 cm^2.

The area of one side is equal to the height multiplied by the depth, or 20 cm * 20 cm = 400 cm^2.

Since there are two sides, the total area of the sides is 400 cm^2 * 2 = 800 cm^2.

Therefore, the total surface area of the box that needs to be decorated is 540 cm^2 + 800 cm^2 = 1340 cm^2.

To find the surface area of the box that needs to be decorated, we need to find the area of the front surface and the two side surfaces.

The area of the front surface is equal to the width multiplied by the height, which is 20 cm * 27 cm = 540 cm^2.

The area of each side surface is equal to the height multiplied by the depth, which is 20 cm * 20 cm = 400 cm^2. Since there are two side surfaces, the total area of both side surfaces is 400 cm^2 * 2 = 800 cm^2.

Therefore, the total surface area of the box that needs to be decorated is 540 cm^2 + 800 cm^2 = 1340 cm^2.

So, none of the given options (1018, 2960, 1880, 67) match the correct surface area of the box that needs to be decorated.

whats the clostest answer

The closest answer to the correct surface area of the box that needs to be decorated is 1018 cm².
