Answer:

The mistake is to make \frac{15}{16}=\frac{3}{5}

The correct answer \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the operation performed by Kali:

\frac{15}{16}*\frac{4}{5}=\frac{4}{5}*\frac{3}{5}=\frac{12}{25}

but 15/16 ≠3/5, so knowing this   \frac{a}{b}*\frac{c}{d}=\frac{a}{d}*\frac{c}{b}  ,  then

\frac{15}{16}*\frac{4}{5}=\frac{15}{5}*\frac{4}{16}=3*\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

Surface area of solid figures
Lilit [14]

Answer:

C. 468mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of rectangular prism is:

A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Let's break down our variables.

L = 12mm

W = 6mm

H = 7mm + 2mm = 9mm

Now we substitute our values in the formula:

A=2((6)(12)+(9)(12)+(9)(6))

A=2(72+108+54)

A=2(234)

A=468mm^{2}
