Ramona is painting the entire surface of a block of wood in the shape of a right rectangular prism. the block of wood has a length of 8 in., a width of 3 in., and a height of 5 in. what is the total area she will paint?

158 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

 l = 8 in

w = 3 in

h = 5 in

Calculations:

Front + Back = 2 × (8 in × 5 in) =  2 × 40 in² = 80 in²

Top +Bottom = 2 × (8 in × 3 in) =  2 × 24 in² = 48 in²

    Two ends = 2 × (5 in × 3 in) =  2 × 15 in²  = 30 in²

                                                              Area = 158 in²

Ramona will paint 158 in² of surface.
