Answer:

748 ft²

Explanation:

For the surface area, you need to add up the area of all sides, six in this example, but it can be simplified into three by multiplying some of them by two as its presumed a rectangle

x1 = 5*14*2 = 140

x2 = 16*14*2 = 448

x3 =16*5*2 = 160

You find the sum of these; 140 + 160 + 448 = 300 + 448 = 748
