The formula for the volume of a right rectangular prism is V = lwh, where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
We are given that the volume is 50 cubic units and the height is 2 units.
Let's assume the length is l, the width is w, and the height is 2.
So, the equation becomes:
50 = l * w * 2
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get:
25 = l * w
Therefore, the area of the base (which is equal to the length times the width) is 25 square units.
So, the correct answer is:
25 square units
