The surface area of each side of the box ( there should be six sides unless it doesn't have a top ) added together will give you the total surface area. The surface area of one side is calculated by multiplying the length and the width. The answer will be in square inches or square centimeters depending on what unit of measure you use.

If you multiply the length by the height then divide by two can you calculate the area of the front surface of a box?
No. If you want the area of a single surface of a box, simply multiply the height by the width of the surface of interest.
To calculate the area of the front surface of a box you must do what?
multiply the height by the width
Are area and surface area the same?
No, they are two different things. Area encompasses the total object while Surface Area only encompasses what it implies. For instance, if you had a box, the Area would be the total size of the box, while Surface Area would only indicate the size of the top of the box. no. area is Lenth times width and surface area is what the area of the whole object.
How do you determine the area of a cylindrical box?
The area of a three dementional figure is divided into lateral surface area and total surface area. The total surface area of a cylindrical box can be calculated by using the formula : 2 times pi times radius squared plus 2 times pi times radius times hight The lateral surface area can be calculated by the formula: 2 times pi times radius times height
How do you calculate the area of the front surface of the box?
You measure the sides, and multiply the top and side.
