Answer:

His error is multiplying by 4 sides as he thought it was total surface not lateral surface area- the final answer is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

He should have multiplied it by 3, because the 3 sides- not including the base- is what lateral surface area is. He originally did total surface area not lateral surface area so each sides area is 4m squared then you just multiply it by 3 and its 12

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides are in proportion.

$\frac{RG}{FG} =\frac{SH}{FH}$
40 / 7x + 14 = 44 / 33 + 44
40 / 7x + 14 = 44/77 = 4/7
40(7) = 4(7x + 14)
280 = 28x + 56
10 = x + 2
<u>x = 8</u>

How do I solve quotients

Since division is the opposite of multiplication, you can turn this division problem into a multiplication problem by multiplying the top fraction by the reciprocal of the bottom.
