April Raffle Problem

Ellen and Lauren are covering a rectangular prism with special paper. The prism is 20 inched long, 8 inches wide, and 6 inches high. They must cut out a one-piece net that fits the prism exactly, with no overlapping or gaps. What are the dimensions of the smallest sheet of paper from which they can cut the net?
