its the overall space the object takes up....So technically yes its the inside....To find it on a box its Length x Width x Height

That gives the volume, not surface area.

How is the surface area different from area?
Surface area is all the areas for a 3 figure. Area is for only on side of a 3d figure
What is the formula for surface area and volume?
That depends on the figure whose surface area and volume you're finding. You could try a Google search for "volume of [figure name]" or "surface area of [figure name]".
What is the square units in a interior of a 2d figure or the surface of a 3d figure?
A 2D interior will be length times width (a flat shape) as in the area of a floor.A 3D figure would be length times width times depth (a raised shape) as in a box.The units used would depend. A floor would be in feet and inches or metres and centimetres.A 3D figure would be in a similar measurement, but given in cubic units.
What is the definition of area in mathematics?
Area is the number of square units contained in the interior of a figure
What is the name of sum of the areas of all faces of a solid figure?
The "Surface Area" of the solid figure. Note, the word "total" in the answer above is not correct/needed - there can not be anything less than a surface area of a solid figure.
How do you find the surface area of a space figure?
The surface area of a space figure is the total area of all the faces of the figure

To find the surface area of a three dimensional figure what do you have to find?
You need to find the area of each two dimensional surface on the figure. Do you have a specific figure in mind?
Are surface area and area different?
Surface area concerns a 3-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere. Area concerns a 2-dimensional figure such as a square or circle.
What is the definition of area in mathematics?
Area is the number of square units contained in the interior of a figure
What is the surface area of a dodecehedron?
you need measurements to figure out surface area. the simplest way to figure out the whole area of a dodecahedron is to find the surface area of one pentagon, then multiply by 12 (the number of sides of a dodecahedron)
What is the name of sum of the areas of all faces of a solid figure?
The "Surface Area" of the solid figure. Note, the word "total" in the answer above is not correct/needed - there can not be anything less than a surface area of a solid figure.
Can a Surface area of a solid figure can be found by multiplying the area of the base by the height of the figure?
yes
The amount of surface inside a two dimensional figure?
That's the area.
What is a formula to work out the surface area of a quadrilateral?
A quadrilateral does not have a surface area because it is not a voluminous figure.
