Samuel is painting a toy chest. Needs to know surface area to buy needed paint. What is surface area of the chest? 3ft. length, 2ft. width, 2ft. height

The surface area of the chest would be 32 ft. you can find this by first finding the area of the sides. the area of 4 of the sides would be 6 because 3 (length) times 2 (height) is 6. the other 2 areas would be 4 because 2 (height) times 2 (width) equals 4. this would account for all the sides.
