    I'd call this a trick question ... at least one that's trying hard to distract you.

    It makes no difference what shape Gina decided to construct with her cardboard.

    Whether it was a cube, a sphere, a pyramid, or a crumpled up ball of cardboard.

    As long as she used " ... the entire sheet of cardboard ... ", the surface area stays

    the same as it was when it was just a flat sheet.

    (9-feet x 6-feet) = 54 square feet
