ANSWER :

2040 in^3

EXPLANATION :

From the problem, we have an aquarium.

If we divide the solid into two parts, we will have two rectangular prisms :

The big prism is 10 in by 12 in by 14 in.

The small prism is 5 in by 12 in by (20 - 14 = 6) 6 in

The volume formula of a prism is :


V=lwh

The volume of the solid is the sum of the volumes of two prisms.

That will be :


\begin{gathered} V=10(12)(14)+5(12)(6) \\ V=2040in^3 \end{gathered}
