Answer:

The volume of the container is 480 in.

Explanation:

First, lets break the container into two figures, just to make it easier to calculate the volume or area.

The first figure is has the height of 10 in, length of 8 in, and width of 5 in.

10 × 8 × 5

10 × 8 = 80

80 × 5 = 400

The volume of the first figure is 400 in.

Next, lets calculate the volume of the second figure which has the height of 5 in, length of 4 in, and the width of also 4 in.

5 × 4 × 4

5 × 4 = 20

20 × 4 = 80

The volume of the second figure is 80 in.

Now, lets add the volumes of the two figures to find the total volume, 400 in for the first figure, and 80 in for the second figure. v

400 + 80 = 480

The total volume of the figure is 480 in.
