To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to calculate the area of each of the six faces and then add them together.
In this case, the rectangular prism has dimensions of 4m x 3m x 2m.
The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Plugging in the values:
2(4 * 3) + 2(4 * 2) + 2(3 * 2)
= 2(12) + 2(8) + 2(6)
= 24 + 16 + 12
= 52
Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 52 square meters.
