Find the volume of the first figure, then find the volume of the second figure, then add them together.
V=lwh
V(1)=(15)(12)(6)
= 1,080in^3
V(2)=(12)(6)(6)
= 432in^3
--------------------------------------------
1,080+432= 1,512 in^3
--------------------------------------------
Your answer should be 1,512
