To find the volume of the table, you need to calculate the volume of each component (table top, pedestal, and base) separately and then add them together.
1. Table Top:
Volume = length x width x depth
Volume = 30 inches x 30 inches x 2 inches
Volume = 1800 cubic inches
2. Pedestal:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 8 inches x 8 inches x 25 inches
Volume = 1600 cubic inches
3. Base:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 12 inches x 12 inches x 4 inches
Volume = 576 cubic inches
Total Volume = Table Top Volume + Pedestal Volume + Base Volume
Total Volume = 1800 cubic inches + 1600 cubic inches + 576 cubic inches
Total Volume = 3976 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the table is 3976 cubic inches.
