We could approach the stereo receiver to a rectangular prism, that has the formula of surface area (A):


A=2ab+2bc+2ac

As the dimensions are given: a = 18", b = 16", c = 9"; then we just have to replace these values in the formula:


A=2(18)(16)+2(16)(9)+2(18)(9)

Simplifying:


A=576+288+324


A=1188

Answer: 1188 in²
