Question

Help plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Answer 1

180 square inches

5 x 6 = 32.5

32.5 x 4 = 130

5 x 5 = 25

25 x 2 = 50

130 + 50 = 180

Explanation:

first find the area of all the sides (length times width)

width = 5

length = 6.5

5 x 6.5 = 32.5

32.5 is the area for one side. there are 4 others identical to it

32.5 (one side) x 4 (the amount of sides identical) = 130

then you need to find the area for the bottom/top side

5 = length

5= width

5(L) x 5(W) = 25

25 is the area for the bottom. the top is identical to it

25(bottom side) x 2 (the amount of sides identical)

now add all of the sides up

130 + 50 = 180
