Problem

Carl has $5$ cubes each having side length $1$, and Kate has $5$ cubes each having side length $2$. What is the total volume of these $10$ cubes?

$\textbf{(A)}\ 24 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 25 \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 28 \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 40 \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 45$

Solution

A cube with side length $1$ has volume $1^3=1$, so $5$ of these will have a total volume of $5\cdot1=5$.

A cube with side length $2$ has volume $2^3=8$, so $5$ of these will have a total volume of $5\cdot8=40$.

$5+40=\boxed{\textbf{(E) }45}$ ~quacker88
