Answer: The volume is 10 cm^3
Explanation:
We know that each cube is a centimeter cube.
This means that if L is the length of each side of one of these cubes, then L = 1cm
And we know that the volume of a cube of side length L is:
V =L^3
Then the volume of each of the small cubes is:
V = (1 cm)^3 = 1 cm^3
Now we just need to count the number of cubes in the prism.
We can see that there is a "T" shape.
in the front part, we can see 5 cubes.
And there is another part in the back, where we also can assume that there are 5 cubes.
Then the total number of cubes in the prism is 10
And each of these cubes is 1 cm^3
Then the volume of the prism is 10 times 1 cm^3
The volume of the prism is:
V = 10*(1 cm^3) = 10 cm^3
