Answer 1

Total surface area of the box =
`108 feet^2`

Explanation:

Dimensions of the box:

`Length(L)= 4 feet\\Width(W)= 3 feet\\Height(H)= 6 feet`

The box is in the shape of a cuboid,

Total surface area of a cuboid:

`= 2(L*W+W*H+H*L)\\ = 2(4*3+3*6+6*4)\\ = 2(12+18+24)\\ =2(54)\\ = 108 feet^2\\`

The Total surface area of the box is
`108 feet^2`
