Answer:

D


Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of rectangular prism is given by the formula:

Volume of Rectangular Prism = Length Width Height

Thus,

Volume of single rectangular prism = \(length*width*height\\=5*6*2\\=60\)

60 is the volume of 1 of these rectangular prisms, so 10 of these would have a volume of  \(10*60=600\)


Answer choice D is right.
