Answer:

72 cubes

Explanation:

Top view of the rectangular prism shows the unit cubes arranged in two rows along the length.

In each row number of unit cubes arranged = 9

Right view side of the prism shows the unit cubes arranged in two columns.

Number of unit cubes in each column = 4

Total number of cubes arranged in the prism = (Number of cubes in each row × Number of cubes arranged in two columns) × Number of columns

= (9 × 4) × 2

= 72

Therefore, number of cubes filled completely in the prism with no gaps = 72
