The brown paper required to wrap the package is 468 square inches.
What is a cuboid?
A cuboid is a three-dimensional shape in which all sides are rectangles. A cuboid has 6 faces, 8 vertices, and 12 edges. All the angles formed at the vertices of a cuboid are right angles. The opposite edges are parallel to each other.
For the given situation,
The diagram shows the package that is cuboid in shape.
The dimensions of cuboid are
The length of the cuboid = 12 in
The wide of the cuboid = 9 in
The height of the cuboid = 6 in
The package is wrapped using the brown paper. The brown paper needed can be calculated by using the surface area formula,
[tex]A=2(lw+hl+hw)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]A=2[(12)(9)+(6)(12)+(6)(9)][/tex]
⇒ [tex]A=2[108+72+54][/tex]
⇒ [tex]A=2[234][/tex]
⇒ [tex]A=468[/tex]
Hence we can conclude that the brown paper required to wrap the package is 468 square inches.
