A monument has a base and a statue. The base isa rectangular prism that measures 4 feet by 6 feet by 2 feet. The statue isa cube with edges that are 2 feet long. What is the volume Of the monument?'
here
(6×4×2)×2=96 cubic feet
96
4x6=24x2=48x2=96
To find the volume of the monument, we need to calculate the volume of both the base and the statue separately, and then add them together.
First, let's find the volume of the base. The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is:
Volume = length × width × height
Given that the length of the base is 4 feet, the width is 6 feet, and the height is 2 feet, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Volume of base = 4 feet × 6 feet × 2 feet
Simplifying this equation, we get:
Volume of base = 48 cubic feet
Next, let's find the volume of the statue. Since the statue is a cube, all of its edges have the same length, which is 2 feet.
The formula for the volume of a cube is:
Volume = edge length × edge length × edge length
Plugging in the value of 2 feet for the edge length:
Volume of statue = 2 feet × 2 feet × 2 feet
Simplifying this equation, we get:
Volume of statue = 8 cubic feet
Finally, to find the total volume of the monument, we add the volume of the base and the volume of the statue:
Total volume = Volume of base + Volume of statue
= 48 cubic feet + 8 cubic feet
= 56 cubic feet
Therefore, the volume of the monument is 56 cubic feet.
the formula for volume is
V=l*w*h
So, Someone, why did you double the volume of the base, and ignore the cube?
the volume of the monument is the base plus the statue. That makes it
4^6*2 + 2^3 = 48+8 = 56 ft^3
