The volume \( V \) of a right rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:
\[
V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]
In this case, you are given that the area of the base (which is the area of the rectangle that forms the bottom of the prism) is 20 square units, and the height of the prism is 3 units.
Using the values provided:
\[
V = 20 \, \text{square units} \times 3 \, \text{units}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
V = 60 \, \text{cubic units}
\]
Therefore, the volume of the prism is \( 60 \) cubic units.
