A material in the shape of a rectangular prism (cuboid) is given.

The volume and the surface area are given to be 180in³ and 258in², respectively. The cost of the material per square inch is given to be $0.05.

It is required to find the cost of the material.

To do this, since the cost per square inch is given, multiply the surface area by the cost per square inch:


258*0.05=\$12.9

The cost of the material is $12.9.
