Answer:

54

Explanation:

The formula for the volume V of a prism is V=​Bh, where B represents the area of a base and h represents the height of the prism. Subtract the volume of the small prism from the volume of the large prism.

The volume of the removed portion is 35 cm³.

Explanation:

Given,

The length× width× height (L×B×H) of the outer part = 3 cm×3 cm×7 cm

The length× width× height (l×b×h) of the inner part = 2 cm×2 cm×7 cm

To find the volume of the removed portion.

Formula

The volume of the removed portion = volume of outer part - volume of inner part

Volume of rectangular prism = l×b×h

Now,

Volume of outer part = 3×3×7 cm³ = 63 cm³

Volume of inner part = 2×2×7 cm³ = 28 cm³

Hence,

The volume of the removed portion = 63-28 cm³ = 35 cm³
