If a rectangular box has A width of 2cm, a length of 3cm, and a height of 5cm, what is the surface area?


Is it 62cm2?

yes

What are dimensions?

To find the surface area of a rectangular box, you need to calculate the area of all six sides and then sum them up.

The formula to calculate the surface area is:

Surface Area = 2 × (Length × Width + Length × Height + Width × Height)

In this case, the length is 3cm, the width is 2cm, and the height is 5cm.

Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Surface Area = 2 × (3cm × 2cm + 3cm × 5cm + 2cm × 5cm)
= 2 × (6cm² + 15cm² + 10cm²)
= 2 × 31cm²
= 62cm²

So, yes, the surface area of the rectangular box with a width of 2cm, length of 3cm, and height of 5cm is indeed 62cm².
