Question

2in 2in 2in 6in 6in

What is the volume of the composite figure?

Answer 1

To find the volume of the composite figure, we need to first find the volume of each individual shape and then add them together.

The first three figures are squares with side lengths of 2 inches, so their volume is:

Volume = side length^3
Volume = 2^3 = 8 cubic inches each

The next two figures are rectangles with dimensions 6in x 2in x 2in. Therefore, their volumes are:

Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 6 x 2 x 2 = 24 cubic inches each

Now, add up the volumes of all the shapes to get the total volume of the composite figure:

Total Volume = (8 + 8 + 8 + 24 + 24) cubic inches
Total Volume = 72 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 72 cubic inches.
