The formula for the volume of a right rectangular prism is V = lwh, where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
In this case, the volume is given as 50 cubic units, and the height is given as 2 units. Let's denote the length by l and the width by w.
So, we have the equation 50 = lw * 2.
To find the area of the base, we need to solve for lw. We can divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate lw:
50/2 = lw
25 = lw
Therefore, the length times the width (the area of the base) is 25 square units.
