A monument has a base and a statue. The base is a rectangular prism that measures 4 ft by 6ft by 2 ft. The statue is a cube with edges that are 2 ft long. What is the volume of the monument.
So find the volume of the separate shapes. For rectangular prisms (which includes cubes), multiply width by height by length. So multiply 4 by 6 by 2. And for the cube, multiply 2 by 2 by 2. Then, to find the total volume, add the two together.
