Calculate the total surface are of cuboid of dimensions 6cm by 5m by 7.5cm

1 answer

To calculate the total surface area of a cuboid, we need to find the area of all six sides and add them together.

The formula for the total surface area of a cuboid is:

Total Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Where:
l = length
w = width
h = height

In this case, the dimensions are:
Length (l) = 6 cm
Width (w) = 5 m (1 m = 100 cm, so 5 m = 5 * 100 = 500 cm)
Height (h) = 7.5 cm

Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Total Surface Area = 2(6)(500) + 2(6)(7.5) + 2(500)(7.5)
= 6000 + 90 + 7500
= 13590 cm^2

Therefore, the total surface area of the given cuboid is 13590 cm^2.
