SSC CHSL - 30 May 2022 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q66

Find the total surface area of a cuboid whose length is 20 cm, width is 15 cm, and height is 8 cm.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 1160 cm2

Given:

l = 20 cm, b = 15 cm and h = 8 cm

Formula used:

Total surface area of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + hl)               ---- (1)

Where, l = length, b = breadth and h = height

Calculations:

Using equation (1), we get

⇒ Total surface area = 2(20 × 15 + 15 × 8 + 8 × 20)

⇒ 2(300 + 120 + 160)

⇒ 2(580) = 1160
