It is not possible to answer the question for two reasons:
1. A box is a 3-dimensional object and so needs three measured to define its size - unless it is spherical or cylindrical in shape.
2. There are no units given in the question so it is not possible to say whether the base of the box is 144 square inches, or 144 square centimetres or something else.

A rectangular box that is 6 by 8 by 12 units has a surface area of 2 x (6 x 8) + 2 x (6 x 12) + 2 x (8 x 12) = 432 square units
Half the contents of box A equals 12 x 12 x 6... which is 864 cubic centimetres !
