Question

A shoebox is covered with packing paper before being shipped. The paper cost $0.02 per square inch. How much will it cost to cover three pairs of shoes?

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost of packing 3 boxes = 3*(2LW + 2WH + 2LH) * 0.02 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume length of box = L in

height of box = H in

width of box = W in

surface area = (2LW + 2WH + 2LH) sq. in.

surface area of 3 boxes = 3*(2LW + 2WH + 2LH) sq.in.

Cost of packng one sq. in.= 0.02 dollars

Cost of packing 3 boxes = 3*(2LW + 2WH + 2LH) * 0.02 dollars
