Answer:

42 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

You need the total surface area of the box which is shaped like a rectangular prism.

surface area = area of bases + lateral area

Let length = 3 ft, width = 2 ft, height = 3 ft.

The base is a rectangle 3 ft by 2 ft.

The perimeter of the base is 2(3 ft + 2 ft) = 10 ft

The lateral area is (perimeter of the base) × height = 10 ft × 3 ft = 30 ft²

The area of the two bases is 2 × (3 ft × 2 ft) = 12 ft²

The total surface area is 30 ft² + 12 ft² = 42 ft²
