What is the difference between the area of each face on a box added up and the surface area of a box?
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.
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.
Tocalculate the area of the front surfaceof a box?
The front surface of a box is a rectangle. If you only need the area of the front surface, then it doesn't even matter what it's part of. Multiply the width of the surface by its height. The answer is its area.
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.
What is the difference between volume of solid figure and surface area of a solid figure?
Volume is how much an object can store - like how much can you put inside a box. Surface area is the sum of the area of an objects surfaces - such as if you have a box, find the area of one side. Then you just multiply it by 6 (because a box have 6 faces) to get the total area of an object's surface.
