Answer:

158 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

l = 8 in

w = 3 in

h = 5 in

Calculations:

Front + Back = 2 × (8 in × 5 in) = 2 × 40 in² = 80 in²

Top +Bottom = 2 × (8 in × 3 in) = 2 × 24 in² = 48 in²

Two ends = 2 × (5 in × 3 in) = 2 × 15 in² = 30 in²

Area = 158 in²

Ramona will paint 158 in² of surface.
