Solution

Length of the cuboid box (l) = 6

Breadth of the cuboid box (b) = 400 cm = 4 m

Height of the cuboid box (h) = 1.5 m

T.S.A of the cuboid = 2(lb + bh + lh) sq.units

= 2(6 × 4 + 4 × 1.5 + 1.5 × 6) sq.units

= 2(24 + 6 + 9)

= 2 × 39 sq.m

= 78 sq.m

Cost of painting for one sq.m = ₹ 22

Total cost of painting = ₹ 78 × 22

= ₹ 1716
