[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The surface area of the rectangular prism can be calculated by finding the area of each of the six rectangles in the net and adding them all together.

The dimensions of the rectangular prism in the net are:
- Length = 6 units
- Width = 4 units
- Height = 5 units

Calculating the area of each rectangle:
- Top and bottom faces: 6 units (length) x 4 units (width) = 24 units2 x 2 = 48 units2
- Front and back faces: 6 units (length) x 5 units (height) = 30 units2 x 2 = 60 units2
- Left and right faces: 4 units (width) x 5 units (height) = 20 units2 x 2 = 40 units2

Adding all of the areas together:
48 units2 + 60 units2 + 40 units2 = 148 units2

The surface area of the rectangular prism is 148 in.2.

Therefore, none of the given response options match the correct answer.
