Philip Buckley · Answer 1

15 552 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Since cubes have the same side lengths all around, to find the volume, you need to have one side length and cube it.

Cube 1 : 24³ = 24 x 24 x 24 = 13 824 in³

Cube 2 : 12³ = 12 x 12 x 12 = 1 728 in³

Now, to find the total, just add the volumes.

13 824 + 1 728 = 15 552 in³
