Question: Compute the flux integral S vec ( F ) * d v e c ( S ) in two ways, directly and using the Divergence

Compute the flux integral Svec(F)*dvec(S) in two ways, directly and using the Divergence Theorem. S is the surface of the box with faces x=2,x=3,y=0,y=2,z=0,z=3, closed and oriented outward, and vec(F)=x2vec(i)+4y2vec(j)+z2vec(k).
Using the Divergence Theorem,
Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcdpq,dzdydx=
where a=dots,b=,c=,d=, and q=
Next, calculating directly, we have Svec(F)*dvec(S)=(the sum of the flux through each of the six faces of the box). Calculating the flux through each face separately, we have:
On x=3,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcd,dzdy=
where a=dots,b=dots and d=
On x=2,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcd|,dzdy||=
where a=,b=,c= and d=
On y=2,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcd|dzdx||= where a=,b= and d=
On y=0,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcddzdx= where a=dots,b=,c= and d=
On z=3,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcd?,dydx= where a=b=,c=, and d=
And on z=0,Svec(F)*dvec(S)=abcd,dydx= where a=,b=,c=, and d=
Thus, summing these, we have Svec(F)*dvec(S)=
Compute the flux integral S vec ( F ) * d v e c (
