Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration showing two cubes joined on both sides of a cuboid. The sides of the cube are 5 centimeters. The length of the cuboid is 10 centimeters and height is 12 centimeters.
What is the volume of the composite figure?
(1 point)
The volume of the composite figure can be calculated by adding the volumes of both cubes and the cuboid.
Volume of each cube = side^3 = 5^3 = 125 cubic centimeters
Volume of the cuboid = length x width x height = 10 x 5 x 12 = 600 cubic centimeters
Total volume = 2(125) + 600 = 250 + 600 = 850 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 850 cubic centimeters.
