Question

The shape below is a composite figure made up of two rectangular prisms, what is the volume of the figure?

Answer 1

11098 cm³

Explanation:

Volume of top prism

• V = 62 x 3 x (13 - 7)
• V = 186 x 6
• V = 1116 cm³

Volume of bottom prism

• V = 62 x 23 x 7
• V = 1426 x 7
• V = 9982 cm³

⇒ Total volume = Volume (top) + Volume (bottom)

⇒ Total volume = 1116 + 9982

⇒ Total volume = 11098 cm³

Answer 2

to find:

the volume of the given figure.

solution:

area:

`= 179 \: {cm}^(2)`

volume:

`area \: of \: c.s \: * h`

`= 179 * 62`

`= 11098 \: {cm}^(3)`

therefore, the volume of the given figure is 11098 cubic centimeters.
