Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 29SGR

  298in2 of paper are needed to cover the gift.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:Sarah is wrapping a gift that is 12 inches long, 6 inches wide and 4 inches high

Formula Used:

Surface area of cuboid is given by the below formula:

  Surface areaCuboid=2(Length×Height)+2(Width×Height)+2(Width×Length)

Calculation:

Given a gift that is 12 inches long, 6 inches wide and 4 inches high

Here, dimensions of gift as follows:

  Length=12in.Width=6in.Height=4in.

Wrapping paper required to cover the gift is calculated by finding the total surface area of gift

Surface area is calculated as follows:

  Surface areaCuboid=2(Length×Height)+2(Width×Height)+2(Width×Length)

Substituting the values, volume is

  Surface area=2(12×4)+2(6×4)+2(12×6)Surface area=2(48)+2(24)++2(72)Surface area=96+48+154Surface area=298in2

Conclusion:

Hence, 298in2 of paper are needed to cover the gift.
