The volume of the rectangular prism can be calculated by multiplying its length, width, and height:
Volume = 11 inches * 3 inches * 4 inches
Volume = 132 cubic inches
The volume of the cube can be calculated by multiplying its side length by itself three times:
Volume = 3 inches * 3 inches * 3 inches
Volume = 27 cubic inches
The total volume of the composite figure is the sum of the volumes of the rectangular prism and the cube:
Total Volume = 132 cubic inches + 27 cubic inches
Total Volume = 159 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 159 cubic inches.
