Question

How much wrappping paper do you need to cover a box that is 18 inches by 15 inches by 3 inches

Answer 1

Explanation:

So to do this, you would find the surface area of a box. Since it is a rectangular prism, two sides will always have the same area and so there are 3 different areas. 18*15*2 = 540 and 18*3*2 = 108 and 3*15*2 = 90 and 90 + 108 + 540 = 738 inches
