    Correct option is D


    · Total Surface Area = 236 cm²
    · Length, l = 8 cm
    · Height, h = 6 cm
    Substitute the known values into the formula:
    236=2(8b+b⋅6+6⋅8)
    Simplify inside the parentheses:
    236=2(8b+6b+48)
    Combine like terms:
    236=2(14b+48)
    Divide both sides by 2:
    118=14b+48
    Subtract 48 from both sides:
    70=14b
    Divide both sides by 14:
    b=5
