1. **State the problem:** Find the surface area of a rectangular prism with dimensions height $h=3$ yd, width $w=5$ yd, and depth $d=1 \frac{1}{5}$ yd.
2. **Convert mixed number to decimal:**
$$1 \frac{1}{5} = 1 + \frac{1}{5} = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2$$
3. **Formula for surface area of a rectangular prism:**
$$SA = 2(hw + hd + wd)$$
4. **Substitute the values:**
$$SA = 2(3 \times 5 + 3 \times 1.2 + 5 \times 1.2)$$
5. **Calculate each product:**
$$3 \times 5 = 15$$
$$3 \times 1.2 = 3.6$$
$$5 \times 1.2 = 6$$
6. **Sum inside the parentheses:**
$$15 + 3.6 + 6 = 24.6$$
7. **Multiply by 2:**
$$SA = 2 \times 24.6 = 49.2$$
8. **Final answer:**
The surface area of the prism is **49.2 square yards**.
