Let's divide the figure into two prisms, as that will make finding its volum easier

and

The volume of a rectanglular prism is given by


V=A\cdot h

Where A is the area of the base and h is the height.

In this case, we have


V_1=2\cdot3\cdot15=90

and


V_2=7\cdot5\cdot4=140

Finally, the total volume will be


V_T=V_1+V_2=90+140=230

So the volume of the figure is 230 cubic inches.
