The formula to calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism is: 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given:
- Length (l) = 54 inches
- Width (w) = 24 inches
- Height (h) = 36 inches
Surface Area = 2(54*24) + 2(54*36) + 2(24*36)
Surface Area = 2(1296) + 2(1944) + 2(864)
Surface Area = 2592 + 3888 + 1728
Surface Area = 8208 square inches
Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 8208 square inches.
