The formula for the volume \( V \) of a right rectangular prism is given by:

\[
V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

In this case, we are given that the volume \( V \) is 50 cubic units and the height \( h \) is 2 units. We can rearrange the formula to find the area of the base \( A \):

\[
A = \frac{V}{h}
\]

Substituting in the given values:

\[
A = \frac{50 \text{ cubic units}}{2 \text{ units}} = 25 \text{ square units}
\]

So, the area of the base is **25 square units**.
