Answer:

$Volume = 288in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Base\ Cubes = 36$

$Layers = 8$

Required

The volume of the prism

The number of base cubes represents the base area and the number of layers represents the height of the prism.

So, the volume is calculated as:

$Volume = Base\ Cubes * Layers$ i.e Base Area * Heights

$Volume = 36 * 8$

$Volume = 36in^2 * 8in$

$Volume = 288in^3$
