Answer: Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the surface area with the formula for calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism:

[tex]SA=2(wl + lh + hw)[/tex]

Where w is the width, l is the length, and h is the height.

You can observe in the figure that:

[tex]l=5cm\\w=4cm\\h=2cm[/tex]

Then, substituting the values into the formula  [tex]SA=2(wl + lh + hw)[/tex], you get that  minimum amount of cardboard used for the wrapper is:

[tex]SA=2[(4cm)(5cm)+(5cm)(2cm)+(2cm)(4cm)]\\SA=76cm^2[/tex]
