To find the answer, we need to count the total number of yellow smiley faces that make up the letter "H". We can break the letter down into three parts: the left vertical line, the right vertical line, and the horizontal bar in the middle.
Step 1: Count the left vertical line
Let's count the circles in the column on the far left.
Counting from top to bottom, there are
12 smiley faces.
Step 2: Count the right vertical line
Now, let's count the circles in the column on the far right.
It is the same height as the left side, so there are also
12 smiley faces.
Step 3: Count the middle horizontal bar
The horizontal bar connects the two vertical lines. We need to count only the circles *between* the left and right columns to avoid counting any twice.
Counting the circles in the middle row between the two sides, there are
8 smiley faces.
Step 4: Add them all together
Now we add the counts from each part:
* Left side: 12
* Right side: 12
* Middle part: 8
Calculation: $12 + 12 + 8 = 32$
There are 32 smiley faces in total.
Final Answer: 32
