Question

Work out the volume of this prism.

Answer 1

480

Explanation:

you need to work out the cross section (10*8) then length(6)

80*6=480

Answer 2

= 240 cm³

Explanation:

Divide the figure into two rectangular prisms.

Lower and upper.

V = L x W x H

Lower part

= 8 x 6 x 2

= 96 cm³

Upper part

Height = 10 - 2 = 8 cm

= 3 x 6 x 8

= 144 cm³

Add them both to get the total volume

= 144 + 96

= 240 cm³
