The dollhouse is divided into three rectangular prisms:
1. The base: 10in wide, 8in long, and 12 in high
2. The first floor: 10in wide, 8in long, and 6in high
3. The second floor: 10in wide, 8in long, and 6in high
There is also a triangular prism roof on top, but we'll ignore that for now.
To find the total volume of the dollhouse, we can add up the volumes of each individual prism:
1. Volume of the base: 10 x 8 x 12 = 960 cubic inches
2. Volume of the first floor: 10 x 8 x 6 = 480 cubic inches
3. Volume of the second floor: 10 x 8 x 6 = 480 cubic inches
Total volume = 960 + 480 + 480 = 1920 cubic inches
So the dollhouse has a total volume of 1920 cubic inches.
Solve an expression for the total volume of the dollhouse. 10in wide, 8in long 12 in high 6 in high 6in high 2in wide
