The volume of the composite figure can be calculated by adding the volumes of the two cubes and the cuboid together.
Volume of one cube = 2 yards x 2 yards x 2 yards = 8 cubic yards
Volume of two cubes = 8 cubic yards x 2 = 16 cubic yards
Volume of cuboid = 4.5 yards x 2 yards x 2 yards = 18 cubic yards
Total volume = 16 cubic yards + 18 cubic yards = 34 cubic yards
Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 34 cubic yards.
