A. 533.45 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Surface area of the container in square inches can be found as follows,
  • The formula to find the surface area is,
  • SA = 2(h × W) + 2(h × L) + 2(W × L)
  • SA  = 2 (18 ×6) + 2(18 × 6) + 2 (6 × 6)
  • SA  = 2 (108) + 2 (108 )+ 2(36 )
  • SA= 216 + 216 + 72
  • SA= 504 square inches
  • The measurement which is closest to the total surface area of the container in square inches is
  • A. 533.45 square inches.
