The surface area of a rectangular prism can be calculated as follows:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Where l, w, and h are the dimensions of the rectangular prism.
Given:
l = 334 dm
w = 412 dm
h = 5 dm
Now, plug in these values into the formula:
Surface Area = 2(334)(412) + 2(334)(5) + 2(412)(5)
Surface Area = 2(137888) + 2(1670) + 2(2060)
Surface Area = 275776 + 3340 + 4120
Surface Area = 283236
Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 283236 square decimeters, which is not one of the provided options.
