We are given a figure and we are asked to determine its volume. The given figure is a straight prism, therefore, the volume is given by:


V=A_bh

Where:


\begin{gathered} A_b=\text{ area of the base} \\ h=\text{ height} \end{gathered}

Substituting the values we get:


V=(20\operatorname{cm})(5\operatorname{cm})

Solving the operation:


V=100\operatorname{cm}^3

Therefore, the volume of figure A is 100 cubic centimeters. The same procedure can be used to determine the volume of figure B.
