10. The composite figure was built using centimeter cubes. What is the volume of the composite figure shown? \( V=\begin{array}{c}\text { cubic centimeters }\end{array} \)

To find the volume of the composite figure made of centimeter cubes, simply count how many 1 cm³ cubes fit into the shape. If the figure consists of multiple sections, calculate the volume for each section separately and then sum them up. For example, if one section is a rectangular prism with dimensions 3 cm x 2 cm x 4 cm, its volume would be 24 cm³. When dealing with composite figures, a common mistake is to overlook small sections or not account for overlaps correctly. Ensure all parts are included in your calculations! If you’re stuck, break the figure down into simpler shapes like rectangles and cylinders; this can simplify the volume calculation process tremendously.
