You are given a compound three-dimensional shape that consists of a cube that measures 3 in x 3 in x 3 in and a second three-dimensional shape that measures 12 in x 14 in x 6 in. 

What is the cubic area of each shape? 

What is the combined cubic area of the compound shape? 

What is you divided the combined cubic inches into 2 equal parts, what could be a formula for one of the new solid shapes? How would we go about this? 

What 27 inches cubed?

What is 1,008 inches cubed?

What is 1,035 inches cubed?

We would need to divide 1,035 into two equal parts which would be 517.5. We would then need to figure out how we could split 517.5 into three parts so that we can make the Length x Width x Height formula work out to a product of 517.5.
