Question

area and explanation thanks

Answer 1

You cut this box into two seperate boxes. The area of the first box (top) is 96. Then we find the area of the bottom box, which is 128.
96 + 128 is 224.
Hope this helps!!!:)

Answer 2

To find the area of the entire figure, you can split the shape in the picture into two rectangles, find the area of each, and add them together. Here, the area of the upper rectangle would be 4 x 24 = 96, and the area of the lower rectangle would be 16 x 8 = 128, so the area of the entire figure would be 128 + 96 = 224.
