How many square inches of wrapping paper are needed to entirely cover a box that is 2 inches by 3 inches by 4 inches?
I did lxwlh and got 26 Is this correct
total surface area
= 2 ends + (front and back) + (top and bottom)
= 2(2x3) + 2(2x4) + 2(3x4)
= 12 + 16 + 24
= 52
Whatever is lxwlh ??
No.
Multiply again.
If I multiply again I get 52. Is that correct? Thanks
Right. The surface area is 52 square inches.
You need to give the right and only answer because it may be to confusing with a lot of numbers that don't make any sense.
Its 52
How Many Square inches of wrapping will be needed to completely cover a can that is 15 inches high if the radius of the bottom circle is 8 inches
yall all is wrong its 2006
To calculate the surface area of a rectangular box, you need to find the area of each side and add them up. The formula to calculate the surface area is 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height of the box.
In this case, the length (l) is 2 inches, the width (w) is 3 inches, and the height (h) is 4 inches. We can substitute these values into the formula:
Surface area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Surface area = 2(2)(3) + 2(2)(4) + 2(3)(4)
Surface area = 12 + 16 + 24
Surface area = 52 square inches
So, you would need 52 square inches of wrapping paper to entirely cover the box, not 26 as you calculated.
