Question:

Calculate the volume of this ‘n’-shaped prism. 

The shape can be broken down into three cuboids, labelled A, B and C. The volume of the prism is therefore the sum of the volumes of the three cuboids. 

Volume of cuboid A=2×8×5=80 cm3 

Volume of cuboid B=3×8×3=72cm3 

Volume of cuboid C=2×8×5=80cm3 

Total volume of prism= 80+72+80=232 cm3
