OpenStudy (dtan5457):
This question is so simple that you refuse to think over it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
both = 60
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
would you like to show your work, what does 60 refer to?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2x5x6=60 and 3x4x5=60

now just find the surface area for both figures
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
what did you get for the surface areas?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A i got 12 and b i got 15
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so b is the answer

No.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then a
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
\[2(l \times w)+(l \times h)+(w \times h)\]
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
For A
w=2
l=6
h=5
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
How could that equal 12?
