Question

Can someone explain this to me?

Answer 1

Hey!
We're finding the permitter.
This is defined as the distance around an object, and with squares and rectangles is:
P = 2L+2W
which basically simplifies to "you're adding all the sides".
Therefore, we have:
P= 5+5+3+3 =
10 + 6 =
16
Your answer is A.
Hope this helps!
