Answer: C, 93m^2

Explanation:

first step is to find the surface area of the base. it's 3x3, so that would be 9m^2. the sides of the rectangular prism are 5x3, so one side is 15m^2. there are 4, so 15x4=60m^2. now for the top, which is a triangular prism. each side has a height of 4 and a base of 3. the area of a triangle is 1/2bh, so 1/2(3)(4), which is 6. 4 of these makes 24 m^2. add up all of final numbers to get 9+60+24. this comes to 93m^2, or C.
