The box measures 6 by 5 by 4
Area of the top and bottom = 2 (65) = 60 square inches
Area of the sides = 2 (5 4) = 40 square inches
Area of front and back = 2 (6 4) = 48 square inches
60 + 40 + 48 = 148 square inches

Based on the information given about the prism, the fabrics needed will be 148 inches².

How to calculate the fabric needed.

The area of the top and bottom will be:

= 2 × 6 × 5 = 60 inches²

Area of the sides = 2 × 5 × 4 = 40 inches²

Area of the front and back = 2 × 6 × 4 = 48 inches²

Therefore, the fabric needed will be:

= 60 + 40 + 48 = 148 inches²
