1. **State the problem:** We need to find the volume of a solid composed of two right rectangular prisms joined together in an L-shape.
2. **Identify dimensions:** The height of both prisms is 4 cm.
- The larger prism has a base of 10 cm by 6 cm.
- The smaller prism has a base of 4 cm by 4 cm.
3. **Formula for volume of a rectangular prism:**
$$\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}$$
4. **Calculate volume of the larger prism:**
$$V_1 = 10 \times 6 \times 4 = 240$$
5. **Calculate volume of the smaller prism:**
$$V_2 = 4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64$$
6. **Add volumes to get total volume:**
$$V = V_1 + V_2 = 240 + 64 = 304$$
7. **Final answer:** The volume of the solid is **304 cubic centimeters**.
