Answer 1

Answer: 24cm^3

Explanation: The side of each cube measures a centimeter, and there are 4 on each side of the prism. Since the prism has 6 sides, we can multiply 6 by 4 to get an answer of 24cm^3.

Answer 2

8 cm cubed

Explanation:

Because that the cubes are well, cubes, all the sides are the same. If 1 side= 1, then the other ones are too. Once you look at the prism, you will notice that there are 8 cubes in total. Let's find the volume of 1 cube first:

The formula is:

w*h*l = v

1*1*1=1

The volume for 1 cube is 1 cm cubed.

1*8=8

The volume for the prism is 8 cm cubed.
