Kara Branch · Answer 1

Volume = L x W x H = 4 x 2x 3 = 24 cubic feet.

Material needed

There are two sides that are 4 x 3, two sides that are 4 x 2 and 2 sides that are 3 x 2:

= 2 (4x3) + 2 (4x2) + 2 (3x2)

= 24 + 16 + 12

= 52 square feet.

Ronan Callahan · Answer 2

Volume

=4*3*2

=24 cube ft

material

=2 (4*2) + 2 (2*3) + 2 (3*4)

=16+12+24

=52 square ft
