Question

1. select all of the calculations that surface area might help with

□ a. how many blocks fit in a container

□ b. how much wrapping paper a gift will need

□ c. how heavy a gift is

□ d. how much milk fits in a container

□ e. how much cardboard it takes to make a milk container

Explanation:

Step1: Understand surface - area concept

Surface - area measures the total area that the surface of a 3 - D object occupies.

Step2: Analyze option A

Finding how many blocks fit in a container is about volume (space inside), not surface - area.

Step3: Analyze option B

Wrapping paper covers the surface of a gift. Surface - area helps determine how much wrapping paper is needed.

Step4: Analyze option C

How heavy a gift is depends on its mass and density, not surface - area.

Step5: Analyze option D

How much milk fits in a container is about the volume of the container, not surface - area.

Step6: Analyze option E

Cardboard needed to make a milk container covers the surface of the container. Surface - area helps determine the amount of cardboard.

Answer:

B. How much wrapping paper a gift will need, E. How much cardboard it takes to make a milk container
