Answer:

96 m²

Explanation:

The total area of the two triangular bases is ...

A = 2(1/2)bh = bh

A = (3 m)(4 m) = 12 m²

The total area of the rectangular faces is ...

A = Ph = (3 m +4 m +5 m)(7 m) = 84 m²

Then the total surface area of the prism is ...

12 m² +84 m² = 96 m² . . . prism surface area
