Question

Please someone help me solve this

Answer 1

• Yes
• 210 cm² left over

Explanation:

Find the full surface area of the cuboid:

• S = 2(lw + lh + wh)
• S = 2(20*25 + 20*40 + 25*40) = 4600 cm²

Add 15% to the area:

• 4600 + 15% =
• 4600*1.15 =
• 5290 cm²

Find the area of the paper and compare with the above number:

• A = 1 m * 0.55 m = 100 cm * 55 cm = 5500 cm²

The area of the paper is greater and the difference is:

• 5500 - 5290 = 210 cm²
