Question

Suppose the box shown needs to be painted. Which measurement BEST describes the amount of paint needed to paint the

entire box?
A) 684 in2
B) 684 in3
C)1,080 in2
D) 1,080 in3

Answer 1

A) 684 in^2

Explanation:

Since it needs to be painted all around the box we have to find the surface area of the box

The surface area of cuboid is

=2lw+2lh+2hw (l: length, w: width, h: height)

=2×15×12+2×6×15+2×6×12

= 684 in^2
