Answer:

310 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A rectangular prism cage has a height of 28 inches.

Volume of prism is 8680 cubic inches.

We know the area of base of rectangular prism is equal to the area of rectangle.

∴ Lets find out the lenght and width of rectangular prism.

Volume of rectangular prism= $w\times l\times h$

Where, w is width

l is length

h is height.

Now, putting the value in the formula of volume.

⇒ $8,680= w\times l\times 28$

cross multiplying

⇒ $wl= \frac{8680}{28}$

∴ wl= 310 inches²

As we need to find the area of the plastic mat on the bottom of the cage, which is rectangle in shape.

Area of rectangle= $wl$

∴ Area of rectangle= 310 inches²

Hence, 310 inches² is the area of the plastic mat on the bottom of the cage.
