The volume of the desk can be calculated by multiplying the overall length by the overall width by the overall height.
40 inches x 12 inches x 24 inches = 11,520 cubic inches
However, the volume should exclude the space taken up by the legs, which are 10 inches wide, 12 inches deep, and 18 inches high.
10 inches x 12 inches x 18 inches = 2,160 cubic inches
11,520 cubic inches - 2,160 cubic inches = 9,360 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the desk is 9,360 cubic inches. None of the provided options match this answer, so there seems to be a mistake in the choices given.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a drawing of a pedestal desk with two full-width legs and a gap in the middle. The overall length of the table is 40 inches, the overall width is 12 inches, and the overall height is 24 inches. The two legs on the sides are each 10 inches wide and 18 inches high.

are you sure thats correct
Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let's calculate the correct volume of the desk without the legs:
Overall Length = 40 inches
Overall Width = 12 inches
Overall Height = 24 inches
To find the volume, we multiply these dimensions:
40 inches x 12 inches x 24 inches = 11,520 cubic inches
So, the correct volume of the desk is 11,520 cubic inches. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
