The answer is 988 square inches. L=23 W=10 H=8

The equation for surface area is 2(L x W) + 2(L x H) + 2(W x H)

Next, you need to substitute the values into the equation to get:

Surface area= 2(23 x 10) + 2(23 x 8) + 2(10 x 8)

Now finish solving the equation to get an answer of 988 square inches!
