Do you know what formulas you're going to use with these?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No
OpenStudy (kohai):
\[lateral = 2lh + 2wh\]
\[surface = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh\]
Where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height
OpenStudy (kohai):
Are you sure you have all of the dimensions here?

Okay. So, what are the numbers in order?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3.12 cm 17 cm and 5 cm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
17 length 5 width and 3.12 height
OpenStudy (kohai):
Okay. So all you're going to do is plug those into the equation.
\[lateral = 2lh + 2wh\]
\[lateral = (2)(17)(3.2) + (2)(5)(3.2)\]
Just like that :)
OpenStudy (kohai):
And you're going to do that with the surface area, as well
