Question

Marcus is painting the outside of a shoe box for an art project. The box is 9 cm x 10 cm x 3 cm. How much paint does Marcus need?

Answer 1

294 cm^2

Explanation:

This question is asking for the surface area of all 6 sides of the Shoe box. Hence we will have to multiply all the dimensions with each other twice to get the surface area of all the sides.

9x10x2=180

9x3x2=54

10x3x2=60

Adding them together we get 294 cm^2.
