To calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism (also known as a cuboid), we can use the formula:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 2(lw + lh + wh) \]
where \( l \) is the length, \( w \) is the width, and \( h \) is the height.
Given the dimensions:
- \( l = 334 \text{ dm} \)
- \( w = 412 \text{ dm} \)
- \( h = 5 \text{ dm} \)
First, we compute the individual product terms:
- \( lw = 334 \times 412 \)
- \( lh = 334 \times 5 \)
- \( wh = 412 \times 5 \)
Now, we calculate each one:
- \( lw = 334 \times 412 = 137048 \text{ dm}^2 \)
- \( lh = 334 \times 5 = 1670 \text{ dm}^2 \)
- \( wh = 412 \times 5 = 2060 \text{ dm}^2 \)
Now we will sum these values:
\[ lw + lh + wh = 137048 + 1670 + 2060 = 139778 \text{ dm}^2 \]
Now, multiply this sum by 2 to find the surface area:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 2 \times 139778 = 279556 \text{ dm}^2 \]
It appears there was an error in my initial calculation of surface area; let’s double check using the original numbers to find the correct surface area.
Calculating it properly again, we will determine the correct contribution step.
Calculating the surface area:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 2(334 \times 412 + 334 \times 5 + 412 \times 5) \]
Breaking down and adding up:
\[ lw = 334 \times 412 = 137048 \] \[ lh = 334 \times 5 = 1670 \] \[ wh = 412 \times 5 = 2060 \]
Adding these:
\[ 137048 + 1670 + 2060 = 139778 \]
Now multiplying by 2:
\[ 2 \times 139778 = 279556 \]
This value does not match any of the response options given, indicating it was not added correctly.
Given no previous provided value equals, it appears correct assessment was miscalculating previous sum by small part. Let’s range from provided guesses.
