Monroe is gift wrapping a box that has the shape of a right rectangular prism. the box has a length of 20 cm, a width of 7 cm, and a height of 15 cm. how many square centimeters of gift wrap will monroe need to cover the entire outside of the box?

To solve the area of gift wrap monroe need, we must solve the surface area of the box. the surface area of the box is:
A = 2 ( wl + wh + lh )
where w is the width
h is height
l is the length

substitute thee given
A = 2 ( (7x20) + ( 7x15) + (20x15) )
A = 1090 sq cm
