To find the volume of the object made of four rectangular prisms, we first calculate the volume of one prism.

The formula for the volume \( V \) of a rectangular prism is: \[ V = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height} \]

Given the dimensions:

  • Length = 75 cm
  • Width = 30 cm
  • Height = 20 cm

We can calculate the volume of one prism: \[ V = 75 , \text{cm} \times 30 , \text{cm} \times 20 , \text{cm} \] First, calculate \( 75 \times 30 \): \[ 75 \times 30 = 2250 , \text{cm}^2 \]

Next, multiply by 20 cm: \[ 2250 , \text{cm}^2 \times 20 , \text{cm} = 45000 , \text{cm}^3 \]

So, the volume of one rectangular prism is \( 45000 , \text{cm}^3 \).

Since the object is made of four such prisms, the total volume of the object is: \[ 4 \times 45000 , \text{cm}^3 = 180000 , \text{cm}^3 \]

Therefore, the volume of the object is \( \boxed{180000 , \text{cm}^3} \).
