To find the volume of a composite figure, you need to break it down into individual shapes and then add up the volumes of each shape.
In this case, the composite figure consists of a rectangular prism with dimensions 7 inches x 7 inches x 7 inches and a rectangular prism with dimensions 16 inches x 10 inches x 8 inches.
Volume of the first rectangular prism:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 7 inches x 7 inches x 7 inches
Volume = 343 cubic inches
Volume of the second rectangular prism:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 16 inches x 10 inches x 8 inches
Volume = 1280 cubic inches
Total volume of the composite figure:
Total volume = Volume of first rectangular prism + Volume of second rectangular prism
Total volume = 343 cubic inches + 1280 cubic inches
Total volume = 1623 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 1623 cubic inches.
