Question

Jennifer wants to wrap a gift box. The gift box has a square base with a side length of 1.2 feet and a height of 1 foot. The cost of wrapping paper is $0.50 per square foot.

How much will it cost Jennifer to wrap the gift box?

Answer 1

So the area of the bases top and bottom = 28.8 sq ft. The area of the sides = 4.8 sq ft. add those together it's 33.6 now divide that by 2 and you'll get 16.8$ for Jennifer to wrap the box.

Answer 2

The price would be 0.60. It's half of 1.2
