sorry?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then, do b x h for each. (i know this probably sounds very confusing, so example is below~) in the front, you have a very awkward looking shape. i, would cut it into 2 shapes. (you might want to put it into paint, so you can put lines a re-write measurements) then, i would do b x h for the first shape, and write what you get in that shape, then do the next one and write the measure ment. Add them together, and youll have the hole front!

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

yep very confusing but i get what your saying kind of cut the shapes into smaller shapes to make it more easyier but i dont know how to do that @MonKiwi pleasE! help me

OpenStudy (freeg13):
