Find the surface area of the right rectangular prism using nets or decomposition.
The numbers are, length 8 yd, width 6 yd, and height 4 yd.
A. 208 square yards
B. 208 yards
C. 104 square yards
D. 192 cubic yards
First, draw a net for the right rectangular prism:
```
_____
/ /|
/_ _ / |
| | |
| | /
|____|/
```
Next, calculate the surface area of each face:
- Top and bottom faces: 8 yards (length) * 6 yards (width) = 48 square yards * 2 = 96 square yards
- Front and back faces: 8 yards (length) * 4 yards (height) = 32 square yards * 2 = 64 square yards
- Side faces: 6 yards (width) * 4 yards (height) = 24 square yards * 2 = 48 square yards
Finally, add up the surface areas of all faces: 96 + 64 + 48 = 208 square yards
Therefore, the surface area of the right rectangular prism is 208 square yards, which means the correct answer is A. 208 square yards.
