Mrs. Steele had just enough wrapping paper to cover a box that measured 15 inched long, 10 inches high, and 6 inches wide. How many square inches of wrapping paper did she have?
Answer provided by our tutors
we need to find the area of the box that measures 15 inched long, 10 inches high, and 6 inches wide
A = 2(15*10 + 10*6 + 6*15)
A = 300 in^2
Mrs. Steele had 300 in^2 of wrapping paper.
