Manny created a storage bin for the family to hold the remote control and cell phone cords what is the total surface area of the storage box if width is 5 cm, length is 5 cm and the height is 5 cm? In squared centimeters

1 answer

The formula to calculate the total surface area of a rectangular prism is 2lw + 2lh + 2wh.

Given:
Width (w) = 5 cm
Length (l) = 5 cm
Height (h) = 5 cm

Total surface area = 2(5)(5) + 2(5)(5) + 2(5)(5)
Total surface area = 50 + 50 + 50
Total surface area = 150 cm²

Therefore, the total surface area of the storage bin is 150 squared centimeters.
