Are these sentences natural? December 19

Hi,

Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?

1. I must have typed without paying much attention to it.



2. Isn’t that is what they did previously.



3. You had me until the second line of the calculation. You have lost me at the third line. (A collegue and me were discussing a calculation. I understood him until the second line)

Thanks,

MG.
