Question

A rectangular pyramid has a base length, l, of 8.7cm, a base width, w, of 8.7cm, and a height, H, of 12.3cm. Find the volume of the pyramid to the nearest square unit.
A. 306cm^3
B. 310cm^3
C. 315cm^3
D. 328cm^3

Answer 1

Volume of pyramid = 1/3 * base area * pyramid's height
= 1/3 * 8.7 * 8.7 *12.3
= 8.7 * 8.7 * 4.1
= 310.329
= 310 cm^3
