Answer:

508sq. cm

Explanation:

surface area of a prism = 2(lw + wh + lh)

For the larger prism

Surface area = 2(2*10 + 2 * 12 * 10*12)

Surface area = 2(20+24+120)

Surface area = 2(164)

Surface area = 328sq.cm

For the smaller prism

Surface area = 2(3*6 + 3 * 8 * 6*8)

Surface area = 2(18+24+48)

Surface area = 2(90)

Surface area = 180 sq.cm

Surface area of the figure = 328 + 180

Surface area of the figure = 508sq. cm
