Answer:

Surface area of the rectangular prism =
$158\,feet^2$

Explanation:

Surface area of a rectangular prism is:

=2((Length* Width)+(Width* Height)+(Height* Length))

For,

$Length=8\,feet\\\\Width=3\,feet\\\\Height=5\,feet$

Surface area of the rectangular prism for the given dimensions is :

$=2((8* 3)+(3* 5)+(5* 8))\\\\=2(24+15+40)\\\\=2(79)\\\\=158\,feet^2$

Surface area of the rectangular prism =
$158\,feet^2$
