I think I saw that you tried to include that your units were in inches. this is not a metric unit to start. convert inches to centimetres. then multiply the length by the width to get your answer in cm^2, a metric unit

What is the surface area of a phone book?
A phone book has 3 dimensions, and they are length, width, and thickness. It has 6 faces, and they are the front, back and the four "sides" or "edges" of the book. These are all faces, and the surface area will have to account for all the faces. Let's break it down and find that surface area. Picture the book on a table in front of you with the back of the book (called the spine) on your left. The book's cover is length x width, and you have a front and back cover. Take that length x width x 2 to find the area (in square units) of the front and back covers. Now all you have to do is take the thickness x length x 2 to find the area of the back of the book and the front of the book, and then take the thickness x width x 2 to find the area of the bottom and top edges of the book. Add the three numbers and you have the surface area of the book. Want an example? Let's have at it. A 4 inch thick phone book has covers that are 8 by 11 inches. The covers (both of them) are 8 x 11 x 2 = 176 in2 for an area. The front and back sides or edges of the book have an area that is 4 x 12 x 2 = 96 in2 for an area. The top and bottom sides or edges are 4 x 8 x 2 = 64 in2 for an area. We have 176 + 96 + 64 = 336 in2 for the surface area of that phone book. Simple once you break it down and think it through.
