Tennis balls page 434

1 Cuboids of the following dimensions should be considered. Note each unit represents the
diameter of one tennis ball and only different combinations are considered.
1 × 1 × 12, 1 × 2 × 6, 1 × 3 × 4, 2 × 2 × 3
2 Total surface area of a cuboid is given by the formula: A = 2(lw + lh + wh)
Total surface area of the four options are as shown (to nearest whole number):
Dimensions Surface area
Length (cm) Width |(cm) Height (cm)
(units) (cm2)
1 × 1 × 12 6.6 6.6 79.2 2178
1×2×6 6.6 13.2 39.6 1742
1×3×4 6.6 19.8 26.4 1655
2×2×3 13.2 13.2 19.8 1394
The optimum dimensions of the box are 13.2 cm × 13.2 cm × 19.8 cm.
