When this net is assembled, it will form a box. To calculate the area of the outside surface, find the area of each section and add them together. The formula for area of a rectangle is A=lw:

A1=4(2)=8

A2=4(3)=12

A3=4(2)=8

A4=2(3)=6

A5=4(3)=12

A6=2(3)=6

8+12+8+6+12+6=52

The area that was painted green is 52cm2.

Hope this helps!!
