The question is somewhat puzzling. The surface area of a box is not sufficient information to determine its shape and, therefore, its size. Furthermore, surface area would not be given as 480 cubic inches since that is not a measure of area (but of volume). On the other hand, if the box has a volume of 480 cubic inches, the answer, becomes trivial. 480 inch cubes = 480 cubic inches. Rocket science!
no; surface area applies to the square unit of measurement of a 2-dimensional surface, such as one face of a box (length and width). Volume is a 3-dimensional representation that takes the 2-dimensional surface area (length x width) and adds a 3rd dimension in the form of depth, or height. Answers in volume will always be a cubic unit of measure. Summing it up: Surface Area: L x W Cubic Area (Volume): L x W x H
A juice box has a length of 3 inches, width of 1 inch and height of 4 inches. What is the total outside surface area of the juice box? Also how many cubic inches of juice can it contain if the wall thickness of the box is negligible and juice is filled only to 7/8 of the height?
The volume doesn't tell you the dimensions or the area of the sides.The smallest area it could have is 129.266 square cm, but it could beany number greater than that.
The surface area of a box is the sum of the areas of the individual faces. If that's what you said, then there is no difference.
