Answer :

Answer:

5 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

L = 8m

W = 6m

H = 5m

Surface Area of a rectangular prism

A = 2(LW+LH+WH)

LW= 8*6 = 48m^2

LH = 8*5 = 40m^2

WH = 6*5 = 30m^2

A = =2 (48+40+30) = 2×118 = 236m^2 per container

--------

Number of containers = 1180m^2/236m^2 = 5

The company can make 5 storage containers with 1180m^2 available of sheet steel.
