Question

Sam is making a case for his calculator. It is a rectangular prism that will be 5.5 inches long by 2 inch wide by 5 inches high. How much material (surface area) will he need to make the case?

Answer 1

Answer:

97in³

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 5.5, W = 2, H = 5

2(h × W) + 2(h × L) + 2(W × L)

= 2(5*2) + 2(5*5.5) + 2(2*5.5)

= 2(10) + 2(27.5) + 2(11)

= 20 + 55 + 22

= 97in³
