a. (5h^2)^3+ (3k)^3B. (5h^2+3k)(25h^4-15h^2k+9k^2)
c. (5h^2+3k)(25h^4D. (5h^2+3k)^3

Total Volume = V₁ + V₂
V₁ = Volume of Cube 1
V₂ = Volume of Cube 2

Volume of Cube = (Side Length)³
V₁ = (5h²)³
V₂ = (3k)³

∴ Total Volume = (5h²)³ + (3k)³
And this cannot be simplified further.
So correct answer is: A
