1.) Baraka was burned while trying to put out a campfire that got out of control. The entire front side of both arms was burned. What is the total surface area of Baraka’s burn? 2.) Luke was injured in a cooking accident, which sprayed hot oil all over the front of his face and his chest. What do you estimate to be Luke’s total burn surface area? 3.) Johnny was in an automobile accident and was burned badly. The skin of both legs was completely burned, as were Johnny’s lower abdomen and the front of his left arm. What is the total surface area of Johnny’s burn injuries? 4.) Lucy spilled hot water all over her lap, covering the front of her thighs, her genital area, half of her front torso, and the front of both arms in burns. What is Lucy’s total burn area (as a percentage of total skin surface area)?
