Question

A structure composed of two right rectangular prisms each measuring 8 inches by 6 inches by 3 inches, and one right rectangular prism measuring 6 inches by 4 inches by 10 inches. What is the total volume of structure?

Answer 1

we know that

the volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

V=L*W*H

1) Find the volume of the first and second rectangular prism

`V=2*(8*6*3)=144\ in^(3)`

2) Find the volume of the third rectangular prism

`V=6*4*10=240\ in^(3)`

1) Find the total volume of the structure

`V=144+240=384\ in^(3)`

therefore

the answer is

the total volume of the structure is
`384\ in^{3`
