What is the surface area of the shoebox with the dimensions shown below?

4 in.

5 in.

12 in.

256 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the

length of the box=12 in

Width=5 in

Height=4 in

Surface area of a box can be calculated using 2lw+2lh+2wh

= 2 (lw+lh+wh)

Where

lw=length*width

lh=length*heigth

wh=width*height

Therefore,

Surface area of a box=2 (lw+lh+wh)

=2{ (12*5) + (12*4) + (5*4) }

=2 (60+48+20)

=2 (128)

=256 in^3
