Answer:

8 boxes

Explanation:

Surface area of the rectangular prism:

A=2(wl+hl+hw)

A = 2(5·4+7·4+7·5) = 166

The 166 represents the square ft of one box.

Take the total number of wallpaper she has, 1328 ft^2, and divide by 166 to find the number of boxes that she can cover.


(1328)/(166) = 8

Hope that helps!

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly lets calculate the total surface area of the cuboid

Total surface area of cuboid (A1)

= 2( l*b+ b*h +l*h)

= 2( 7 * 5+ 5 * 4 + 7 * 4)

= 166 ft²

also given that

Total area of the wallpaper ( A2)= 1328 ft²

Now

Number of boxes that she can cover is

= A2 / A1

= 1328 / 166

= 8 BOXES.

hope it will help :)
