The surface area of a rectangular prism is the total area of all the faces of the prism. To calculate the surface area, we need to find the area of each individual face and then add them all together.

- The area of the bottom face (10 inches by 9 inches) is 10 inches * 9 inches = 90 square inches.
- The area of the top face (10 inches by 9 inches) is also 90 square inches.
- The area of the front face (10 inches by 3 inches) is 10 inches * 3 inches = 30 square inches.
- The area of the back face (10 inches by 3 inches) is also 30 square inches.
- The area of the right side face (9 inches by 3 inches) is 9 inches * 3 inches = 27 square inches.
- The area of the left side face (9 inches by 3 inches) is also 27 square inches.

Adding all these areas together: 90 + 90 + 30 + 30 + 27 + 27 = 294 square inches.

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 294 square inches.
