Question 4 • Mathematical Models with Applications - MA4072 CR

A rectangular box which is 4 in. by 7 in. by 7 in. is covered by foil. How much foil is required?

Answer
A
161 sq. in.
B
105 sq. in.
C
196 sq. in.
D
210 sq. in.

Explanation

Foil must cover all six faces, so find the box’s surface area: 2(4 × 7) + 2(4 × 7) + 2(7 × 7) = 56 + 56 + 98 = 210 square inches. The correct choice is 210 sq. in.
