Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The box is in the shape of a cuboid.
The top and bottom of the box is 8in by 3in. The area of the top and the bottom of the box would be
2 × 8 × 3 = 48 square inches.
The sides are both 3in by 2in. The area of the two opposite sides of the box would be
2 × 3 × 2 = 12 square inches.
The front and back are 8in by 2in. The area of the front and back would be
2 × 8 × 2 = 32 square inches.
The amount of wrapping paper that Chloe needs to wrap the present would be
48 + 12 + 32 = 92 square inches
Answer:
92 sq. inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Total paper required = total surface area
Surface area of a cuboid = 2[(l×b) + (l×h) + (b×h)],
Where 'l' is the length, 'b' is the breadth and 'h' is the height
For the box, total surface area = 2[(8×3) + (3×2) + (8×2)]
=2[24 + 6 + 16]
=2[46]
= 92 sq. inches
