Answer: 576 square inches

Explanation:

The box has a length and width but also has volume.

Formula for calculating the volume of a box: L x W x H

3 x 12 x 16 = 576 square inches

You do;
l x w x h
So, you have to do;
16 x 12 x 3.
I THINK!
If not, then do;
16 x 12 รท 3? I'm not good at Geometry. Sorry. ;P
