The formula for the volume of a right rectangular prism is V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. In this case, we are given that the volume is 50 cubic units and the height is 2, so the equation becomes 50 = lw(2).
We need to find the area of the base, which is lw. We can solve for lw by dividing both sides of the equation by 2.
50/2 = lw
25 = lw
So, the area of the base is 25 square units. Therefore, the correct answer is 25 square units.
