One face of a cube-shaped package has an area of 7 5/8 square inches what is the lateral surface area of the package in square inches

Respuesta :

Answer:

232.57 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the  lateral surface area of the package in square inches is shown below;

Let us assume the area of cube is a

Given that

a = [tex]7 \frac{5}{8}\ in^2[/tex]

As we know that in a cube there is a four faces so the lateral surface area would be

[tex]= 4a^2\\\\=4\times 7\frac{5}{8} ^2\\\\= 4\times (\frac{61}{8})^2\\\\= 4\times \frac{3721}{64} \\\\= 232.57[/tex]

= 232.57 square inches
