2 answers:
The dimensions of the box are given 24 inches long, 12 inches wide, and 10 inches high. The box is in the shape of a rectangular prism.
We know the formula of surface area of rectangular prism is given by :-
where l is length, w is width, and h is height of the rectangular prism.
We can plug the given values l = 24, w = 12, and h = 10 into the formula and solve it for answer.
Surface area = 2 x (24x12 + 12x10 + 10x24)
Surface area = 2 x (288 + 120 + 240)
Surface area = 2 x 648
Surface area = 1296 squared inches.
So she needs 1296 squared inches of wrapping paper.
Hence, the final answer is 1296 squared inches.
