To calculate the surface area of the air conditioner, we need to find the areas of all six sides and add them together.
Given dimensions:
Length = 23 inches
Width = 25 inches
Height = 17 inches
Now, let's calculate the surface area of each side:
1. Front and back sides: Length x Height = 23 x 17 = 391 square inches (two sides)
2. Top and bottom sides: Width x Length = 25 x 23 = 575 square inches (two sides)
3. Side sides: Width x Height = 25 x 17 = 425 square inches (two sides)
Now, add up the surface areas of all sides:
391 + 391 + 575 + 575 + 425 + 425 = 2782 square inches
Therefore, the surface area of the air conditioner is 2782 square inches.
