5 cubes each of side 2 units are joined together. Find the resulting volume.
Since the cube is of side 2 units and they are placed or joined together , we have a cuboid of length 10 units , breadth 2 units and height 2 units as shown in the figure given below
The volume of the cuboid = length×breadth×height
= 10×2×2
= 40 cu units
