$\begin{array}{r} h = & 3 \\ l = & 4 \\ w = & 5 \end{array}$

Step 1

The surface area of a box is equal to the sum of the areas of each side of the box.

$2 \cdot (l e n g t h) \cdot (w i d t h) + 2 \cdot (l e n g t h) \cdot (h e i g h t) + 2 \cdot (w i d t h) \cdot (h e i g h t)$

Step 2

Substitute the values of the length

$l = 4$ , the width

$w = 5$ , and the height

$h = 3$ into the formula.

$2 \cdot 4 \cdot 5 + 2 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 + 2 \cdot 5 \cdot 3$
