Answer:

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

We will find the volume of figure 1:

V1 =
18*21*36+(1)/(3)*36*21*9

=
13608+2268=15876 cubic feet

We will now find the volume of figure 2:

V2 =
36*21*18+(1)/(2)*36*21*9

=
13608+3402=17010 cubic feet

Now, the difference of volumes of both figures =
17010-15876=1134 cubic feet.

Hence, the volume of figure 2 is more than figure 1 by 1134 cubic feet.
