To find the surface area of the box, we need to find the area of each face and then add them up.
The box has 6 faces:
1. The front face: 7 cm x 8 cm = 56 sq cm
2. The back face: 7 cm x 8 cm = 56 sq cm
3. The top face: 7 cm x 11 cm = 77 sq cm
4. The bottom face: 7 cm x 11 cm = 77 sq cm
5. The left side face: 7 cm x 7 cm = 49 sq cm
6. The right side face: 7 cm x 7 cm = 49 sq cm
Now, add all the areas together:
56 + 56 + 77 + 77 + 49 + 49 = 364 sq cm
Therefore, the surface area of the box that Liam decorates is 364 square centimeters.
