ANSWER:

5.65 ft²

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have the following measures:

Length (l) = 13 inches

Width (w) = 11 inches

Height (h) = 11 inches

We can determine the surface area as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2\cdot l\cdot w+2\cdot l\cdot h+2\cdot w\cdot h \\ \\ \text{ We replacing:} \\ \\ A=2(13)(11)+2(13)(11)+2(11)(11) \\ \\ A=286+286+242 \\ \\ A=814\text{ in}^2 \\ \\ \text{ Convert inches to feet, knowing that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches} \\ \\ A=814\text{ in}^2\cdot\frac{(1\text{ ft\rparen}^2}{(12\text{ in\rparen}^2} \\ \\ A=5.65\text{ ft}^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct answer is 5.65 ft²
