Question 912417: The question is=
What will be the total surface area of a ONE topped cardboard box ,whose LENGTH=6cm,
BREATH=4cm and HEIGHT=5cm
So here I'm confused that if we have to find the TOTAL SURFACE AREA of the ONE TOPPED cardboard box then we should include the value its top side in the surface area or not.
Although, they are asking the total surface area but it is one topped cardboard box.

Question 913484: The area of one side of a box is 120cm^2. The area of another side of the box is 72cm^2. The area on top of the box is 60cm^2.
Find the length, width and height of the box.
I'm having problems with this Q.
I know that:
W x L = 60
H x L = 120
W x H = 72
But not sure where to go from there.

Question 42075: Question
An open water tank with length 20 cm and width 15 cm holds 4.8 litres of water. Calculate the height of the water level in the tank and the total surface area of the cuboid in contact with the water.
This is what I have done
4.8 litre = 4800 cm^3 (cm cube) since 1 litre = 100cm^3
Let the height of the water level = h
Volume
= Length x width x height = 4800
20 x 15 x h = 4800
300h = 4800
h = 4800/300
h=16
Total surface area of the cuboid
= 2 ((length x width) + (length x height) + (width x height))
= 2 ((20 x 15) + (20 x 16) + (15 x 16))
= 2 (300 + 320 + 240)
= 2 (1100)
= 2200
But my teacher said that the answer is 1420 (for the total surface area). Who is right in this case ?
Please help. Tahnk you very much.
