Han has to build the figure below, which will serve as a counterweight, for his robotics project. Find the volume in cubic cm of the finished object assuming it's empty inside. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. Han is going to fill the object with sand, which has a density of 1.61 g/cm3. Find the mass, in grams, of the sand that Han will have to purchase. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

\begin{gathered} \text{The volume of triangular prism =}(1)/(2)*8*4*5 \\ =80\operatorname{cm}^3 \\ \text{The volume of rectangular prism=5}*8*6 \\ =240\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{The total volume of prism =80+240} \\ V=320\operatorname{cm}^3 \end{gathered}
