Really Quick Question!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A wedding cake is prepared using 3 individual cakes. The first is a rectangular prism with a length thirteen inches, a width 9 inches, and a height 3 inches. The second is a cylinder with a diameter 6 inches and a height 4 inches. The third is a cube with side length 3 inches. What is the approximate total volume of the cake? Use three point one four for pi. Round to the nearest whole number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't have to explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well first you have to find the volume of each one by multiplying length*width*height then once you find the volume of each one you add them together to get the volume of each one

OpenStudy (anonymous):
