OpenStudy (friendzone):

i posted wrong thing hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can't you just tell me what they are instead of posting it?

@imqwerty can u explain this please my answer was 24

OpenStudy (friendzone):

@mazmaz1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i got 24 also and only reason being is multiply L*W*H would be 6 and it isn't a choice so instead i put L*W/h since it is .5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i got 24 buttt @imqwerty should help lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If I know the Length, Width, and Height I can tell you the answer

imqwerty (imqwerty):

to find the surface area of rectangular prism use this formula-|dw:1454955373504:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is that qwerty ._. ????

imqwerty (imqwerty):

that is the formula to find out the surface area of right rectangular prism :) in our case we have |dw:1454955610930:dw| \(l=4m\) \(h=0.5m\) \(w=3m\) so just put them in that equation to get the surface area

OpenStudy (friendzone):

14m2 would be the answer

imqwerty (imqwerty):

you made some calculation error ig :) alright i'll guide you through the calculations

OpenStudy (friendzone):

its not 31 or 7 so it would be 24

imqwerty (imqwerty):

no no :) it will be 31 so we have this formula for surface area-> \(\Large Surface~Area=2(wl+hl+lw)\) we have \(w=3m\) \(l=4m\) \(h=0.5m\) so we put them in equation we get this- \(\large Surface~area=2(3 \times 4 + 0.5 \times 4 + 0.5 \times 3)\) \(\large Surface~area=2(12+ 2 + 1.5)\) \(\large Surface~area=2(15.5)\) \(\large Surface~area=31m^2\)
