Answer: 180 cubic centimeters

Explanation:

Each little blue cube measures 1 cm in each direction - width, height, and depth.

The volume of the whole figure is just the volume of all the little cubes, added up.

The block of cubes is 5 cubes wide and has a depth of 6 cubes. So each horizontal layer is 5 * 6 = 30 cubes, total.

The block of cubes is 6 layers deep, so we have 6 layers of 30 cubes each = 6 * (30 cubes) = 180 cubes in all.

Each cube is 1 cubic centimeter (abbreviated 1 cc), so 180 of them have a combined volume of 180 cc.

A shorter way to say all this is to say that V = width * depth * height =

= 5 cm * 6 cm * 6 cm = (5)(6)(6) cm³ = 180 cubic centimeters
