Connie is making a cardboard ice-cream truck for a school project. She painted the body of the truck on a cardboard template. How much cardboard did Connie use if the truck is 8 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 6 inches tall?

Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

208 square inches of cardboard.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Connie is making a cardboard ice-cream truck for a school project. The truck is 8 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 6 inches tall. We are asked to find the amount of cardboard used by Connie to make the truck.

We will use surface area of cuboid to solve our given problem.

\text{Surface area of cuboid}=2(lw+wh+hl)

Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

\text{Amount of card-board needed}=2(8\cdot 4+4\cdot 6+6\cdot 8)

\text{Amount of card-board needed}=2(32+24+48)

\text{Amount of card-board needed}=2(104)

\text{Amount of card-board needed}=208

Therefore, Connie needs 208 square inches of cardboard.
