Answer:

744 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are filling the larger box with both rectangular prism and Styrofoam peanuts, you need to find the overall volume of the larger box and subtract the volume of the glass box to find the amount of space that the Styrofoam peanuts need to take up.  

Volume (prism) = Bh, where B = area of the base, h = height

Larger Box:  V = 10 x 10 x 15 = 1500 in³

Glass Box: V = 7 x 9 x 12 = 756 in³

1500 - 756 = 744 in³ of Styrofoam peanuts
