Answer: 3 metres³

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape described is that of a cuboid which means that the amount of concrete needed for the concrete base in cubic metres is the same as the volume of the cuboid/ concrete base.

Volume = Length * Width * Depth

All the units need to be in metres for the result to be in metres:

1 m = 100 cm

10 cm is therefore = 10/100 = 0.1 m

Volume = 6 * 5 * 0.1

= 3 metres³
