As=2(W*H) + 2(L*H) + 2(W*L=Surface area.
Doubling each dimension multiplies each
term by 4 which multiplies our Eq by 4.
Therefore, the surface area of the larger box is 4 times the smaller box.
As = 4 * 260 = 1,040in^2 = "B"
3. A box company produces two sizes of pizza boxes. The smaller box has a surface area of 260 square inches. The larger box has a length, width, and height that are twice those of the smaller box. What is the surface area of the larger box?
