The volume of the composite figure can be found by calculating the volume of each individual shape and then adding them together.
- The volume of the first square with sides of 5 and 5 is 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 cm cubed
- The volume of the big square with sides of 12 and 10 is 12 x 10 x 5 = 600 cm cubed
- The volume of the last square with sides of 5 and 5 is 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 cm cubed
Adding these volumes together, we get a total volume of 125 + 600 + 125 = 850 cm cubed
Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is 850 cm cubed.
