I need to find the surface area for this one pls help me

Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

so, you got the volume but don't know how to find the surface area ? that is strange for me. what's the problem ?

the surface of a cube or rectangular prism consists of 6 sides that split (for a rectangular prism) into 3 pairs of equal sides :

top and bottom

left and right

front and back

all we need to do is calculate the areas of these 6 rectangles and add them up. that's it.

in our case

top and bottom : 5×4 × 2 = 20×2 = 40 in²

left and right : 4×4 × 2 = 16×2 = 32 in²

front and back : 5×4 × 2 = 40 in²

so, in total, the whole surface area of the prism is

40 + 32 + 40 = 112 in²

Adrienne answered all 21 multiple choice questions correctly on her science test, if her teacher decides to let one of the quest

prisoha [69]

Since there are 21 questions and one is extra credit, the fraction is 21/20. Divide it to get 1.05. In percent, this is 105%. Hope this helps!

<h3>Answer: 5 cakes</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Let's start off converting the mixed number 12 & 1/4 to an improper fraction.

$a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a*c+b}{c}\\\\12 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{12*4+1}{4}\\\\12 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{49}{4}\\\\$

Do the same for the other mixed number 2 & 1/3.

$a \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a*c+b}{c}\\\\2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2*3+1}{3}\\\\2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}\\\\$

-----------------------

From here, we divide the two fractions. I converted them to improper fractions to make the division process easier.

$\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{49}{4} \times \frac{3}{7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{49\times 3}{4\times 7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{7\times 7\times 3}{4\times 7}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{7\times 3}{4}\\\\\frac{49}{4} \div \frac{7}{3} = \frac{21}{4}\\\\$

The last step is to convert that result to a mixed number.

$\frac{21}{4} = \frac{4*5+1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = \frac{4*5}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = 4+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{21}{4} = 5 \frac{1}{4}\\\\$

Note that 21/4 = 5.25 and 1/4 = 0.25 to help check the answer.

-----------------------

Therefore, she can make 5 cakes. The fractional portion 1/4 is ignored since we're only considering whole cakes rather than partial ones.
