195.00 in²

1) Since this rectangular prism has as a base a rectangle whose is 15 x 13 since the area of a rectangle is the product of the width by the height we can write out:


\text{Area}_{\text{base}}=15\cdot13\text{ =195}

2) So the area of the base is 195 in²

3) Hence, the area of the base is 195.00 in²
