Question

Find the total surface area of a square-shaped box having a length of 2 m for its side.

(a) 47 m^2

(b) 22 m^2

(c) 24 m^2

(d) 48 m^2

This question was addressed to me during an interview.

I would like to ask this question from Surface Area and Volume of Different Solid Shapes topic in chapter Surface Area and Volumes of Mathematics – Class 10

Answer 1

The correct answer is (c) 24 m^2

For explanation I would say: The total surface area of a cube = 6a^2

= 6 × 2^2

= 24 m^2
