Let's help Cubie figure out the volume of irregular shapes! Check out the example to see how it's done. Then, follow the same steps and solve two problems on your own.

Volume tells us how much space something takes up. To find the volume of a rectangle, you need three things: the length and width of the base, and the height. In this activity, each irregular shape is made up of two rectangles. First, find the volume of the smaller pieces. Then, add the answers to find the total. Ready? Let's help Cubie out!
