The surface area of the rectangular prism is 544 cm^2.
There are 3 pairs of different rectangles that form the rectangular prism.
If we find the area of each and add them up, we will have the surface area.
Here are the 3 pairs of rectangles:
6 x 16 = 96
8 x 16 = 128
6 x 8 = 48
2(96) + 2(128) + 2(48) = 544
