How much wrapping paper would you need to cover a rectangular box that is 18.25 inches by 12 inches by 3 inches if you need 10% more wrapping paper than the surface area of the box? Give your answer to the nearest square inch.

What is 681 square inches?


2(18.25)+2(3)(12)+2(3)(18.25) = 619.5

10%more = 1.1(619.5) = 681.45 = 681
