Answer:

• The surface area is 216 square feet.

,

• The volume is 144 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solid is a rectangular prism with the given dimensions:

• Length = 6 ft

,

• Width = 2 ft

,

• Height = 12 ft

Surface Area

The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula below:


\text{Area}=2(LW+LH+WH)

Substitute the given value:


\begin{gathered} A=2(6*2+6*12+2*12) \\ =2(12+72+24) \\ =2(108) \\ =216ft^2 \end{gathered}

The surface area is 216 square feet.

Volume

The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula below:


\text{V}=\text{LWH}

Substitute the given value:


\begin{gathered} V=6*2*12 \\ =144ft^3 \end{gathered}

The volume is 144 cubic feet.
