Estimating the volumes of cuboids

Estimate the volume of this cuboid.

                                                          1 row = 4 cubes

                           3 rows

          1 cm

2 layers

                                                                          1 cm
                                                               1 cm

There are 3 rows and each row has 4 cubes on the top
layer. So, it has 3 x 4 = 12 cubes.

Since there are 2 layers, the total number of cubes is
12 x 2 = 24 cubes.
