An advertising agency needs to design a cover for a cereal box. The nutritional information section measures 10 cm by 8 cm. The measurements of the cereal box are h = 30 cm, l = 22 cm, and w = 14 cm. The cover design will not include the nutrition section. How much surface area will the artwork need to cover?(1 point)

To find the surface area that the artwork needs to cover, we need to subtract the area of the nutritional information section from the total surface area of the cereal box.
The total surface area of the cereal box is the sum of the areas of all its sides.
The two sides with dimensions 30 cm by 22 cm have an area of 30 cm * 22 cm = 660 cm² each.
The two sides with dimensions 30 cm by 14 cm have an area of 30 cm * 14 cm = 420 cm² each.
The top side with dimensions 22 cm by 14 cm has an area of 22 cm * 14 cm = 308 cm².
Adding up these areas gives us a total surface area of 660 cm² + 660 cm² + 420 cm² + 420 cm² + 308 cm² = 2,468 cm².
Therefore, the artwork will need to cover 2,468 cm².
