The volume of the rectangular prism can be calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height.
Volume of rectangular prism = 11 inches x 3 inches x 4 inches = 132 in^3
The volume of the cube can be calculated by multiplying the side length three times.
Volume of cube = 3 inches x 3 inches x 3 inches = 27 in^3
Therefore, the total volume of the composite figure is 132 in^3 (rectangular prism) + 27 in^3 (cube) = 159 in^3.
