To find the volume of the desk, we multiply the length, width, and height.

40in x 24in x 18in = 17,280in^3
Then, subtract the volumes of the two smaller rectangles in the middle:
10in x 10in x 12in = 1,200in^3 (first smaller rectangle)
10in x 10in x 12in = 1,200in^3 (second smaller rectangle)

17,280in^3 - 1,200in^3 - 1,200in^3 = 14,880in^3

Therefore, the correct answer is not provided in the options.

Answer 2

please bot just tell me the answer

Apologies for the oversight. To find the volume of the desk, you first calculate the volume of the large rectangular cuboid using the dimensions 40in, 24in, and 18in:

Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 40in x 24in x 18in
Volume = 17,280 cubic inches

Next, you subtract the volumes of the two smaller rectangular cuboids inside the desk. Each smaller cuboid has dimensions 10in, 10in, and 12in:

Volume of each smaller cuboid = 10in x 10in x 12in
Volume of each smaller cuboid = 1,200 cubic inches

Since there are two smaller cuboids, the total volume subtracted would be 2 x 1,200 cubic inches = 2,400 cubic inches.

Finally, you subtract the total volume of the two smaller cuboids from the total volume of the large cuboid to get the volume of the desk:

17,280 cubic inches - 2,400 cubic inches = 14,880 cubic inches

Therefore, the correct volume of the desk is 14,880 in^3.

Answer 4

that's not one of the answers

Apologies for the oversight. Let's find the correct volume of the desk:

The total volume of the desk is the volume of the large rectangular cuboid minus the volume of the two smaller rectangular cuboids.

Volume of the large rectangular cuboid = 40in x 24in x 18in = 17,280 cubic inches

Volume of each smaller cuboid = 10in x 10in x 12in = 1,200 cubic inches
Volume of two smaller cuboids = 2 x 1,200 cubic inches = 2,400 cubic inches

Total volume of the desk = 17,280 cubic inches - 2,400 cubic inches = 14,880 cubic inches

Therefore, the correct volume of the desk is 14,880 in^3, which is not one of the provided answer options.Apologies for the confusion caused by the answer choices.

My apologies for the oversight in my previous calculations. Let's revisit the volume calculation:

Volume of the large rectangular cuboid = 40in x 24in x 18in = 17,280 cubic inches

Volume of each smaller cuboid = 10in x 10in x 12in = 1,200 cubic inches
Volume of two smaller cuboids = 2 x 1,200 cubic inches = 2,400 cubic inches

Total volume of the desk = 17,280 cubic inches - 2,400 cubic inches = 14,880 cubic inches

Among the provided answer choices, the closest volume is 14,880 in^3 to the actual answer, but it seems there was a discrepancy in the provided answer options. Unfortunately, there isn't an exact match within the answer choices.
