One of my favorite things to indulge in is chocolate! So this explains why this math problem is one of my favorites! This problem talks about using perimeter and surface area based on a chocolate bar. I like this problem because there are multiple steps that help you derive your final answer. I also like the questions asked with the problem that set you up to have all of the calculations you need for each formula. Below is the problem:
Before you begin, think of the formulas you may need to help solve these problems. Knowing the formula for area, perimeter and volume will be essential for this problem.
Here are those formulas:
Area of Rectangle = L x W Perimeter of Rectangle = 2* (L x W) Surface Area of Rectangle = 2* (L x W) + 2* (W x H) + 2* (L x H) Volume of Rectangle = L x W x H
