the dimensions of the container are 60 cms by 40 cms by 56 cms
= 0.6 meters by 0.4 meters by 0.56 meters
There are 8 faces in a cuboid 4 faces will have same area. The other four faces will have same arae.
let area of one face be 0.6 * 0.4 = =0.24 sq. meters
The other face will be 0.4* 0.56 = 0.22 sq. meters
The total surafce area of the can will be
4 * 0.24 + 4* 0.22 sq.. meters
0.96 + 0.88 sq. meters = 1.84
Number of containers = 24 , cost of painting per container = $2.50
Toal cost = 240 * 2.5 * 1.84 $ 1104
