A shipping box measures 33 cm by 23 cm by 16 cm. What is its total surface area?
SA = 2(lw + lh + wh)
📘 Worked solution
1lw = 759, lh = 528, wh = 368Find the area of each of the three different faces.
2SA = 2(759 + 528 + 368)Each face has a matching opposite face, so double the sum of the three areas.
3SA = 3310 cm2That's the total surface area of a shipping box.
