The surface area of the box is 2400 square centimeters.

To find the surface area of the box.

What is cube?

A symmetrical three-dimensional shape, either solid or hollow, contained by six equal squares. Cube is a solid three-dimensional figure, which has 6 square faces, 8 vertices and 12 edges. It is also said to be a regular hexahedron.

Given that:

The gift box was in the shape of cube.

So, volume of  gift box=8,000 cubic centimeters (cm3),

We know that

volume of cube=side× side× side

volume of  gift box=8,000 cubic centimeters (cm3)

side× side× side=8,000 cubic centimeters (cm3)

[tex]side =\sqrt[3]{8000} \\\\side=20 cm[/tex]

we know that,

surface area of cube= 6*side× side

surface area of  box=6*20*20

surface area of box=2400 square centimeters

Therefore, the surface area of the box is 2400 square centimeters.
