To find the surface area of the door stopper, we need to calculate the area of all the sides.

The front and back sides each have an area of 16.7 cm x 5 cm = 83.5 square cm.
The top and bottom sides each have an area of 8.9 cm x 5 cm = 44.5 square cm.
The two side walls each have an area of 15.9 cm x 5 cm = 79.5 square cm.

Adding all the areas together, we get a total surface area of 83.5 + 83.5 + 44.5 + 44.5 + 79.5 + 79.5 = 415.5 square cm.

Since one package covers 75 square cm, we need to divide the total surface area by the area covered by one package:
415.5 square cm / 75 square cm = 5 packages of stickers.

Therefore, you will need 5 packages of stickers to cover the door stopper. The closest answer option is:
• You will need 5.5 packages of stickers.
