The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Given that the volume is 50 ft³ and the height is 4 feet, we can rearrange the formula to find the area of the base:
Area of Base = Volume / (Height x Width)
Area of Base = 50 ft³ / (4 ft x Width)
Now, since we don't have the width, we can't find the exact area of the base. However, if we know the length or width, we can solve for the other side using the area.
