Answer 1

To order the figures from least surface area to greatest surface area, we typically evaluate the dimensions and shapes of each prism. However, since I don’t have the visual figures provided here, I can guide you on how to determine their surface areas if you have the dimensions.

1. **Calculate the surface area of each figure**:
- For a right prism, the surface area is calculated as:
\[
\text{Surface Area} = 2 \times \text{Base Area} + \text{Lateral Area}
\]
- The base area depends on the shape of the base (e.g., rectangle, triangle, etc.), and the lateral area can depend on the perimeter of the base times the height of the prism.

2. **Compare the calculated surface areas**:
- Once you have the surface area for all three figures, you can then compare them directly.

3. **Order them**:
- Arrange them from the figure with the smallest surface area to the figure with the largest surface area.

If you provide me with the dimensions of figures 1, 2, and 3, I can help calculate their surface areas and determine the order for you.
