Answer:

165 inch

Explanation:

1) Consider the figure as a whole cuboid

2) Calculate its volume: 10×9×3=270 inch^3

3) Find the height of the upper part of the cuboid on the right side: 9-4=5 inch

4) Find the volume of the missing cuboid (the top left part): 7×3×5=105

5) Subtract the volume of the whole cuboid with the one of the missing part: 270-105=165 inch^3

This is a longer method than the one shown above. However this would be good if the two cuboids intersect each other.

Answer: 165 inches cubed

Explanation:

You will find the volume of each shape separately, then add them together.

Volume = length x width x height.

The volume of the left shape is 7 x 3 x 4 = 84.

The volume of the right shape is 3 x 3 x 9 = 81.

81 + 84 = 165 inches cubed.

Hope this helped!
