Respuesta :

Answer:

3080 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to draw things out. So I drew this cooler out, with the dimensions of 26x14x16. It the cooler is 2 inches thick, I need to remove 2 inches from each side of the cooler. So I took 4 inches off of the 26 and the 14 so the length and width become 22 and 10 respectively. Then I took 2 inches off the bottom of the cooler so the 16 became 14. This gives me the new dimensions of 14x22x10.
