Nanny created a storage van for the family to hold the remote control and cell phone cords. What is the total surface area of the storage van measurements is the front bottom is 5 cm the left side is 5 cm and the right side is 5 cm what is the surface area in centimeters?
To find the total surface area of the storage van, we need to consider the front, back, left, right, top, and bottom faces of the van.
Front face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Back face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Left side face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Right side face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Top face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Bottom face: 5 cm x 5 cm = 25 cm²
Total surface area = 25 cm² + 25 cm² + 25 cm² + 25 cm² + 25 cm² + 25 cm² = 150 cm²
Therefore, the total surface area of the storage van is 150 cm².
