The volume of the table can be calculated by finding the individual volumes of the table top, block pedestal, and rectangular base, and then adding them together.
1. Volume of table top:
Length x Width x Depth
= 30 inches x 30 inches x 2 inches
= 1800 cubic inches
2. Volume of block pedestal:
Height x Length x Width
= 25 inches x 8 inches x 8 inches
= 1600 cubic inches
3. Volume of rectangular base:
Height x Length x Width
= 4 inches x 12 inches x 12 inches
= 576 cubic inches
Total volume:
1800 cubic inches (table top) + 1600 cubic inches (block pedestal) + 576 cubic inches (rectangular base) = 3976 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the table is 3976 cubic inches.
