Radius of cylinder box = 9 inch

Find:

Total wrapping paper need

Computation:

Total wrapping paper need = Total surface area of cylinder

Total surface area of cylinder = 2πr(h + r)

Total wrapping paper need = 2[3.14][9][8+9]

Total wrapping paper need = 2[3.14][9][17]

Total wrapping paper need = [6.28][9][17]

Total wrapping paper need = [56.52][17]

Total wrapping paper need = 960.84 inch²
