The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula: 2lw + 2lh + 2wh where l is length, w is width, and h is height.
Given the dimensions:
Length (l) = 12
Width (w) = 5
Height (h) = 3
Plugging the values into the formula:
2(12)(5) + 2(12)(3) + 2(5)(3)
= 2(60) + 2(36) + 2(15)
= 120 + 72 + 30
= 222
Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 222 square inches.
