In a rectangular prism, we have three pairs of rectangular faces. Therefore, we need to find the area of each pair of faces and add them up to get the total surface area.

The dimensions given are:
Length = 10 cm
Width = 6 cm
Height = 4 cm

Pair 1:
Length = 10 cm
Width = 6 cm
Area = length x width = 10 cm x 6 cm = 60 cm²

Pair 2:
Length = 10 cm
Height = 4 cm
Area = length x height = 10 cm x 4 cm = 40 cm²

Pair 3:
Width = 6 cm
Height = 4 cm
Area = width x height = 6 cm x 4 cm = 24 cm²

Total Surface Area = 2(Area of Pair 1 + Area of Pair 2 + Area of Pair 3)
= 2(60 cm² + 40 cm² + 24 cm²)
= 2(124 cm²)
= 248 cm²

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 248 cm². The answer is not among the options provided.
