Anton wants to wrap a present in a box with the dimensions of 10 cm wide, 4 cm high, and 17 cm long. How much wrapping paper will Anton need to wrap the present? (SA= 2(lw +lh + wh) )
First, we will calculate the surface area of the box using the formula SA = 2(lw + lh + wh), where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
SA = 2(10*4 + 10*17 + 4*17)
SA = 2(40 + 170 + 68)
SA = 2(278)
SA = 556 square centimeters
Therefore, Anton will need 556 square centimeters of wrapping paper to wrap the present.
