You want to wrap a gift box that is 3 in. long, 5 in. wide and 10 in. high. How much gift wrap will you need to cover the entire box?
You will need
2(3*5 + 3*10 + 5*10) = 190 in^2

To calculate the amount of gift wrap needed to cover the entire box, we need to calculate the surface area of the box.
The surface area of a rectangular box can be calculated using the formula: SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
where
SA = Surface Area
l = length
w = width
h = height
Let's substitute the given dimensions into the formula:
SA = 2(3in x 5in) + 2(3in x 10in) + 2(5in x 10in)
Now, we can simplify the calculation:
SA = 30in² + 60in² + 100in²
SA = 190in²
Thus, you will need 190 square inches of gift wrap to cover the entire box.
