To calculate the surface area of the box, we need to find the areas of each of its six sides and then add them together.
The front and back of the box have dimensions of 10 cm by 4 cm, so their combined area is 2*(10*4) = 80 cm^2.
The top and bottom of the box have dimensions of 17 cm by 10 cm, so their combined area is 2*(17*10) = 340 cm^2.
The sides of the box have dimensions of 17 cm by 4 cm, so their combined area is 2*(17*4) = 136 cm^2.
Adding all these together, we get a total surface area of 80 + 340 + 136 = 556 cm^2.
Therefore, Jerry will need 556 cm^2 of wrapping paper to wrap the present.
