    A box has 3 dimensions

    Height
    Length
    Width

    If Height = 4, Length = 5 and Width = 3, then use that to complete your own formula:

    A=2(wl+wh+lh)
    A=2((3*5) + (3*4) + (5*4))
    A=2(15+12+20)
    A=2(47)
    A=94

    Now that you understand the process, you can figure out any one of the dimensions if you know the other 3, If you know AREA & WIDTH & LENGTH, you can use algebra to work backwards and figure out the HEIGHT.
