Answer:

78m^3

Explanation:

basically you have to split it into two rectangles and add the volumes

so think of it like this (first picture)

- looking at the bigger rectangle (blue rectangle) the 6 and the 4 are there as hints to the smaller rectangle so just kind of disregard them

- basically the bottom length is 6 but the top length is 5 and this is because the bottom length includes the other rectangle (smaller/pink rectangle), meaning the extra length from the other rectangle (smaller/pink rectangle) is 1.

- then height is given as 4 and 5. the height of 4 is caused by the line stopping when it meets the pink/smaller rectangle, meaning that the height from the other rectangle (smaller/pink rectangle) is 1.

- so using the correct measurements, the height is 5, the length is 5, and the width is 3 so:

5 • 5 • 3 = 75

~ so as stated above from evaluating the different measurements and how the rectangles “intersect” or meet:

the height is 1, the width is 1, and the length is then given as 3 so:

1 • 1 • 3 = 3

so then 75 + 3 = 78

so the full volume is 78 m^3

hope this helps :)
