Answer:

2) The amount of paper it takes to wrap a gift

3) Painting a wooden box on all sides

5) The amount of aluminum it takes to make a soda can

Explanation:

Volume is how much something can hold, and were looking for the "Surface Area". So, It can't be "The amount of water held in a paper cup in the shape of a cone", "The amount of water a rectangular swimming pool will hold", and Filling a sand box with sand" because these are finding the volume.

Have a great day! :D
