Answer :

[tex]A=52m²[/tex]

1) We can see in the picture, the net surface of that box.

2) We can perfectly tell the following rectangles:

2 Rectangles 3x2

2 rectangles 4x3

2 rectangles 4x2

So we can write out the following for the surface area, considering the Area of each rectangle:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2*\left(3\times2\right)=12m² \\ 2*\left(4\times3\right)=24m² \\ 2*\left(4\times2\right)=16m² \\ -------------- \\ A=52m² \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer: The answer is 52 square meters.
