It is not complete, isn't it?

If we take that on the ends H are present and structure is complete then you can do the
numbering from right end of the chain including the CH3 group .There are in total 12 carbons with 7 methyl groups on it .Show all the positions of methyl by numbers separated by commas followed by heptadodecane

Sorry the question was s'posed to be what two alkenes react together to form this polymer?

How do i find that out?

I don't think it is possible to name them using your image.

Well, you've already got a good hint - how do alkenes react to form a polymer? If you separate the polymer chain back into alkenes, what would they look like?
