Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length = 12 in

width = 8 in

height = 16 in

surface area = ?

Formula

Surface area = 2( length x width) + 2(length x height) + 2((width x height)

Substitution

Surface area = 2(12 x 8) + 2(12 x 16) + 2(8 x 16)

Simplification

Surface area = 256 + 384 + 102

Result

Surface area = 832 in²
