Rami designed a small pond for a restaurant. The diagram below shows the measurements of the pond.

A composite figure created from two horizontal rectangular prisms, one on top of the other. The wider one is on top. The total height is 4 feet. The length of the bottom one is 12 feet. The width of the top one is 6 feet, the height is 2 feet, and the length is 18 feet.
How many cubic feet of water are needed to fill the pond?

Answer:

The volume of water that would fill the pond is 360 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = length x width x height

The cubic feet of water to fill the pond = total volume of the composite figure

Thus,

total volume of the composite figure = V 1 + V 2

V 1 = 12 x 6 x 4

     = 288 cubic feet

V 2 = 6 x 6 x 2

      = 72 cubic feet

Volume of water to fill the pond = V 1 + V 2

                           = 288 + 72

                           = 360 cubic feet

The volume of water that would fill the pond is 360 cubic feet.
