The equation you use to find surface area is A=(wl+hl+hw)*2. The w stands for width (8) the l stands for length (8) and the h stands for height (4). When we put these numbers into the equation we get A=(8·8+4·8+4·8)*2. We do the multiplication first, then we add all of them up and times by 2; this gives us our answer of 256.
