Answer:

540 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

you multiply 15 x12 If you are getting an area 15 x12=180 then you multiply 180 by 3 180x3=540 I think

Answer:

540

Explanation:

If you do 15x12 which is the formula for area for a rectangle, you get 180. That's only the area of one rectangle but if you multiply it by 3 you get 540 for the areas added together.
