To find the area of the base of a right rectangular prism, we can use the formula for volume:

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

Given that the volume \( V \) is 50 cubic units and the height \( h \) is 2 units, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the base area \( A \):

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

Now substitute the values:

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

Therefore, the area of the base is \( \boxed{25} \) square units.

To find the width of a right rectangular prism, we can use the formula for the volume:

\[
V = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height}
\]

Given:
- Volume \( V = 1000 \) cubic units
- Height \( h = 10 \) units
- Length \( l = 20 \) units

We need to solve for the width \( w \). Rearranging the formula gives:

\[
w = \frac{V}{l \times h}
\]

Now, substitute the known values:

\[
w = \frac{1000}{20 \times 10}
\]

Calculating the denominator:

\[
20 \times 10 = 200
\]

Now, substitute this back into the formula:

\[
w = \frac{1000}{200} = 5
\]

Thus, the width of the prism is \( \boxed{5} \).

Given:
- Volume \( V = 50 \) cubic feet
- Height \( h = 4 \) feet

We can rearrange the formula to solve for the base area \( A \):

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

Now substituting the given values:

\[
A = \frac{50 \text{ cubic feet}}{4 \text{ feet}} = 12.5 \text{ square feet}
\]

Thus, the area of the base is \( \boxed{12.5} \) ft².

To find the width of a right rectangular prism, we can use the formula for the volume:

\[

\]

Given:
- Volume \( V = 162,000 \) cubic centimeters
- Height \( h = 40 \) cm
- Length \( l = 90 \) cm

We need to solve for the width \( w \). Rearranging the formula gives:

\[
w = \frac{V}{l \times h}
\]

Now, substitute the known values:

\[
w = \frac{162,000}{90 \times 40}
\]

Calculating the denominator:

\[
90 \times 40 = 3600
\]

Now substitute this back into the formula:

\[
w = \frac{162,000}{3600} = 45
\]

Thus, the width of the box is \( \boxed{45} \) cm.

To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, you can use the formula:

\[
V = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height}
\]

Given:
- Length \( l = 7.5 \) feet
- Width \( w = 5 \) feet
- Height \( h = 3 \) feet

Now, substitute the values into the formula:

\[
V = 7.5 \times 5 \times 3
\]

First, calculate the product of the length and width:

\[
7.5 \times 5 = 37.5
\]

Next, multiply this result by the height:

\[
37.5 \times 3 = 112.5
\]

Thus, the volume of the container is \( \boxed{112.5} \, \text{ft}^3 \).
